A walk through the desert

This is another one of my so-called 'soundscapes'. My method is in essence a simple one: I combine different sequences or samples of different musics, in order to shape a new sound that reveals a musical result in a new context. The pictures are from the worldwideweb.

In this soundscape I've combined and mixed soundbites and sequences from very different musical genres, composed by:
- Philip Dadson, a composer/sound performer from New Zealand ; sequences from 'An Archeology of stones', including a 'sound story' with a voice speaking in Maori, the language of the native population of New Zealand of the same name, the Maori.
- Shubha Mudgal, a raga singer and composer from India ; raga-based music ; an excerpt from the film 'Dance of the wind'
- Aulis Sallinen, Finnish composer ; symphonic 20th century classical music ; an excerpt from his 6th symphony
- Lalo Schifrin, Argentinian-American composer-pianist ; sequences from the film 'THX1138'
- sequences of a minimal music piece by La Monte Young
- Abdullah Ibrahim, South African composer and jazz pianist; sequences of album 'Remixed'

and in this soundscape I've also incorporated a heartbeat-recording

have fun...

Not what I was looking for.

C'est incroyable l'effet sur soi, son propre organisme, c'est reposant, j'ai trouvé ça super beau et énigmatique.

Beautifully layered, has an amazing haunting quality to it. Keep composing.

[Ischi71]

That was OUTSTANDING!!!! Not just pleasing on the ears. Lots of people manage that, but it had an incredible depth to it - so many layers that weren'y just there for entertainment but because without knowing it before - they needed each other.

Wonderful.
