Belle Greve 2am
1 sound
Location
What looked to be the perfect evening to record the gentle sound of the sea lapping at the shore turned into a torrential downpour. This rain preceded an incoming thunderstorm. So my music for Belle Greve bay is accompanied by the sound of a storm drain opening at the Longstore and water pouring down the slipway.
Music
My first experimentation with microtuning. Using the punningly named Lord Of The Springs virtual instrument. I altered the intervals between the notes on this away from standard western tunings. This unique instrument also allows you to experiment with extreme harmonics and overtones on a single virtual string. This, along with the 7/8 time signature, gives an unusual feel to the piece.
