Melodic Ambient
Drone/Soundscape based on the extraordinary sustain of
my Drake Custom 5 bass (main tracks here are a drone (volume pedal)
impro and an harmonics melody on that bass)
Additional sounds are
orchestral samples, synthesizers, a violin track through granulate
plugin and some martin J15 acoustic guitar strums severely manipulated
using Paulstrech software.
Track inspired by the magnificent light and amazing wind blowing around La Morne, in the middle of the Indian Ocean, at the south-west end of Mauritius, during certain days of the month of August.
