The music composition includes the presence of aeolian sounds: flutes (in particular blowing and tapping), clarinets (multiphonic), combined with wing beats, sighs and samples of pre-recorded concrete materials modified with resonant filters, slowed down in speed, played in reverse, edited and reversed, produced with various effects finalising the listening in a continuous sensation of suspension and vertigo, almost a dream, a vortex.
All sounds have been processed with Ableton Live. The electronic sounds were generated by processing instrument recordings in Max/MSP and were mixed & mastered in Ableton Live. Video and video FX were composed, processed and Max/MSP Jitter. Thanks to Mitch Martinez for HD Free Stock Footage.
