Thayù (Peace)
Jan 19, 2023, 11:47 AM
"The field recording (An Arctic Storm) gave the feeling of peace, lonesomeness and calm: An alchemy of emotions that (although poles apart) give a feeling of balance.
"Without intending to change the recording too much that it lost its effect. I cut off unwanted frequencies, added reverb and delay and used it as a bed for my composition.
"The composition; titled Thayù is an inspiration to search for oneself within oneself as is the case with the Arctic; A place alone in the world. But although it is on its own, it has found peace by finding itself within."
