Rubbed sea ice

"Polar Sounds, moving, melting, breaking ice floes. Cracking sounds, crunching noise. Two small tones as a counterpoint in the noise of the dissolving ice.
The recording of the rubbing ice inspired me to experiment with real ice.
My own filed recording with hydrophone of rubbing, crunching ice becomes a dense tapestry of sound togetherwith the samples of the ice from the polar sea. Composed with Appleton Live, a Roland SP404 MK II and a Shbobo Shnth.
What is the power of the ice, when does it lose its power?"
