An intriguing audio adventure.

“…we take a pastoral trip into the nether mind
where thought connects with nothingness”

It’s right

What a journey.
Probably I read the poem a bit too fast and was off to the music. So I listened twice.
You put a lot together ! woah.
I found it a very interesting experience to recognize most of the samples and hear them combined so completely different.
Thank you for this adventurous trip through my ccMixter past.

I love pulling from several source tracks when doing SecretMixter! Plus chopping and mutilating samples into a big collage is very much my thing. I’m so glad you enjoyed the experience!

what a complex and delightful combination of Siobhan’s source material - into one dreamy soundscape that poignantly frames your beautiful poetry. i love it when the rhythm kicks in!

..the song of bone and breath..

Sounds like space journey music or thriller movie music or scary thriller space journey music.

Hoo-wee, some mighty fine industrial hip-hop — it’s like being inside one of those sound labs in the mid 20th century :)
Excellent use of distortion, especially with the bass synth!

This makes my heart so happy. Early BBC electronic and 50s-60s cutup tape artists were a big influence on how I approached this mix!

Right on, PorchCat!
Like me, you probably bought up all those BBC Doctor Who discs too.
Like being in a candy store or something :)

All the backing sounds are disparate but completely fit with one another. You achieve a lovely, dream-like quality here.
