Monte Isola ~ Niebla

Now this is how to create an effective soundscape.  Visit a different land (in this case Chile, a far cry from Monte Isola / Myriam Pruvot’s native Brussels), record the local sounds, add music of your own, and incorporate literature pertinent

Ralph Koper ~ Ancient Pulsations

“For Hindus, there is no holier place than Varanasi”, writes Ralph Koper in his fine introduction to Ancient Pulsations, a collection of field recordings collected on a visit to India.  The city is sustained, physically and spiritually, by the Ganges, used for both

Luca Forcucci ~ Fog Horns

Adern X & Tiziano Milani ~ The Cinema Show
