Created entirely using two audio samples of sounds made by Gulf Sturgeon. No other sounds or instruments used. The raw samples are at the beginning and end of the track

Includes NASA audio samples from the Apollo 11 launch and Mercury 9 mission plus a sample from the 1953 Movie Phantom from Space

blowUpTheMoon

I played the violin parts on a 5 string realist violin. No mics just DI and some effects. The distorted lead line originally came from a sampled bass clarinet.

HighSteppin

Played the ambient background on a feedback synth modified from a tutorial by iftah from skinnerbox (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0IAjnmIEsE)

Back in the golden age of Egyptian cinema (~1940 - 1970) many musicians experimented with fusing Arabic and Western music. This song brings in some of the rhythms and style of that time

deconstructive

The only sounds used in this song are from a short recording of insects at night in my backyard. It's a mix of crickets, katydids, and cicadas that are typically out in late summer.

nightChorus

All sounds originally came from inside a 9ft grand piano. Original samples are part of the Xtended Piano kit in Konkrete Drums 3.
