I have heard most of these samples before but you have arranged the puzzle in a logical and emotional sequence so well done.

There is a small village in the south of England, population of a few hundred, that just after the war erected a simple stone memorial to losing over half of the men of the village, overseas in the 2nd world war.

Battered by the weather for over 50 years it had become in need of restoration. The locals tried unsuccessfully for a year or so to get the monument listed so it might warrant some government funding to help in its restoration. Finally this year they said yes and were given a few hundred pounds.

Yet the Tate Modern gallery with its bricks , and trustee inside dealing got £1.5 million without a second breath.

Never were the words `Lest we Forget ’ more pertinent than today, because some people have.

provocative - and touching…
excellent collage of samples to construct a tapestry of ideas…those spooky air raid sirens at the finale are chilling…..

We’re in Epic country here!!

I like the mix of samples and applaud your use of them.

Great piece of work to come back to CCM with!!

I listen intently, this really takes me on a journey. A very interesting listen indeed.
Very well done on this, its a real musical documentary that captivates .

Wow- this is a classic example of “ambitious, yet very successful”… a lot of my more soundscape-ish stuff seems to fall under merely “ambitious” by comparison. Maybe it’s long, maybe it’s low bit-rate, but it’s very much worth it!

it”s all been said but really excellent piece.

It´s an honour for me to be part of this mix. Excellent and hard work. Congratulations and thanks for this.

nice epic ambient spoken word deal. you got a lot of talent and a good ear. also it helps having Gurdonark help out.
