Convolution is commonly used in music to reproduce the acoustics of a specific concert hall by multiplying the audio stream by an impulse response of the hall desired. Convolution can also be used with two different field recordings to produce a new sound from characteristics of both sounds.

Dawn Angels: Sustained tones convolved with extended bell sounds, combined with hand drums and chanting.

Convolutions-1-DawnAngels

Any Other Day: Stretched piano notes convolved with tinkling sounds and pulsed box sounds.
