More Info

Erste Veröffentlichung in der neuen Serie von GLACIAL MOVEMENTS, in der es um musikalisch-atmosphärische Umsetzungen des Themas "Eiszeit" geht. Auf "AERIAL VIEW" soll weniger das Klischee von Kälte, Tod & Isolationismus transportiert werden, als vielmehr eine Darstellung der erhabenen Stille majestätischer Eis-Landschaften, der Licht- und Wetter-Phänomene erfolgen... die Umsetzung ist gut gelungen mit diesem one-tracker von 65 Minuten, ein "luftiger" Drone mit minimalen Harmonien; ruhig, gelassen & unaufdringlich...

"When I’ve been asked to describe the Ice Age with an uninterrupted drone, I knew I wanted to avoid the cliches of the genre: dark rumblings, massive low frequencies, cold atmospheres. I had to describe with sounds the white landscape, the blinding light reflected by the frozen oceans, the abyssal silence. I have imagined myself in flight over this Sleeping Earth, a solitary winged-being surrounded by winds, air, water and ice. This led me to compose an airy drone with minimal variations and delicate tones, an hommage to a pure, incontaminated and remote land." [credits by Gianluigi Gasparetti / OÖPHOI]
