Amiens I - 2009

released: May 1st 2009 on One Eyed Magician (OEMGTD-200900)

When we are alone and every conceivable thought enters our mind we enter a state of constant awareness and as soon as we hear the slightest noise of unsure origin everything heightens and we bear witness to our own "super senses", in particular we can hear much more and a high pitched drone enters our consciousness. In this silence we can hear everything. Let the drone paint pictures in your mind, set your thoughts loose, shed some light on your own creativity.

This album was my first foray into drone music and the ambient genre and was created almost entirely through synthesis of raw sound sources some of which were created from reverberated feedback and millions of filters (an experiment that would continue into the "Celestial" album). The second track is another example of my wierd imagination; in this particular idea I pictured a movement through an abandoned house that is falling away from the inside but there is something still in stitue here, it moves around but we cannot see it, various noises come from differing rooms but the source of the disturbance is not revealed. Suitably dark and eerie.
