From her website...
One Cello x 16, is an ongoing project in which I layer the natural sound of the cello to create multi-layered music.

To accomplish this, the cello is captured through a combination of microphones and pickups attached to the body of the instrument. I record in real-time using a foot-controlled computer that runs various bits of software.

Although by necessity I must use a fair amount of technology to realize the music in a live setting, I try to keep this technology as unobtrusive as possible. During a performance, the arrangement of the just-recorded parts I can control with my feet so that I am free to play the cello.

I have two recordings of the studio-version of One Cello x 16 and am currently working on a third.

  • I listen to this when I poo. It makes the act seem so primal and powerful, even transcendent.

    When I poo listening to this song, I can feel 1,000,000 years of human history passing out of my anus. I experience a deep and wordless connection to the whole of the race of man, going back to the first apes to walk on two legs. But at the same time I go beyond the merely mortal and enter a higher state of consciousness, allowing me to know the true essence of humanity.

    Everyone should do this.

  • Love Zoe!

  • I am only 14 but..... This is.. AMAZING!! I discovered it on pandora -.-!

  • @RightKnight Ironically, I was thinking about using this in a film for our school assignment ^_^

  • It's a shame that such a beautiful piece of music was featured in the trailer of a horrible movie. Keep up the wonderful work!

  • this song made Red State Look awesome. Red State was an awesome movie.

  • @RightKnight They used it for the trailer for Red State

  • @RightKnight Made great music for the Red State Trailer, which is how I found it.

  • To answer RightKnight, it may not have been in a film yet, but it goes along beautifully with the new Red State trailer.

  • Makes me feel on top of the world
