Boqueria

Sketch of material to be used in "Boqueria", a piece I am working on. This young woman presented a Love Letter to Barcelona at 6:50 AM, apparently after a rough night. I used her voice for this 'BCN_Raga' ;-)), an early morning Raga/Sitar like structure using her voice processed with a bunch of KS-resonators, 2-pole resonators and time-stretching the original recording. After this declamation she returned to her 4th beer (at 6:50 AM, wow, what a life.)

God ! This sounds so surreal. I could imagine this being played at an Iceland landscape exhibition!

Awesome work !

Just listening to 'DUST', sounds really atmospheric to me. But am far away from beeing able to describe what kind of atmosphere. Great work, great sounds here as well.
