A big hi to you all once again,
I've just put a new track up on Soundclick titled From Nowhere To Here And Back Again. This is definitely not for everyone, but does it scare you or are you of the opinion that this isn't music at all?
A dark filmic soundscape using cymbals, primal howls, saxaphone, violin, bamboo flute, harmonica and otherworldly voices. All instrumentation was improvised and recorded in one take in a field in Epping Forest, with processing and layering taken care of later.
Definitely best listened to on headphones in a low-lit room, as loud as is comfortable, to hear the subtle shifting frequencies that make up the wash of sound. Even though it should be obvious by my instrumentation list, I'd just like to point out that no synths or samplers were used in the origination, destruction and eventual re-creation of this piece.
It was recorded for an internet Halloween project and as it's Halloween when I'm posting this, it's worth mentioning that by improvising, with no thought given to structure at the time of playing, it may be entirely possible that the mind is open to being influenced by any mischievous passing spirits that might be around and who want to express themselves in some way – music from another dimension perhaps. It's worth contemplating at least and who knows what other realities are beyond our understanding?
Check it out on my Soundclick page at the link just below and let me know if you have any thoughts about the mix or anything else that grabs you.
Many thanks for your time all you good folk,
