Intervales

Performing with acoustic percussion, synthesizers, and live video processing, Intervales is the electronic/ambient music project of Alex Vittum. Obsessed with hypnotic and melodic themes, Intervales has an enveloping, contemplative sound that is playful, sentimental, and at times ominous.

Alex Vittum is a composer, electronic musician, and drummer. His formative percussion studies were with noted jazz drummer Milford Graves, which brought a unique and expansive approach to his music. Alex’s love of electronics, percussion, and instrument building eventually drew him to Mills College, where he obtained an MFA from the Center for Contemporary Music. Modular synth pioneer Don Buchla then asked Alex to join his team, beginning a long commitment to exploring sound and music technology. Today Alex makes ambient music under the moniker Intervales, a term that originates from his New England roots.
