wonderful scape Colin.......a vivid dream!

Seductive Colin, as I imagined the original Sirens songs were. Now I listened, where's the wisdom? ;)
Peace! /HM

These vocal sound are formant fillters, I assume? Or true sirens ? ;)

@alexamomtaz: Thanks Alexa - glad you enjoyed!

In Greek mythology, the Sirens are creatures with the head of a female and the body of a bird. They lived on an island and with the irresistible charm of their song they lured mariners to their destruction on the rocks surrounding their island.
The Argonauts escaped them because when Orpheus heard their song, he immediately realised the peril they were in. He took out his lyre and sang a song so clear and ringing that it drowned the sound of those lovely fatal voices. When on another journey the Odysseus' ship passed the Sirens, had the sailors stuff their ears with wax. He had himself tied to the mast for he wanted to hear their beautiful voices. The Sirens sang when they approached, their words even more enticing than the melody. They would give knowledge to every man who came to them, they said, ripe wisdom and a quickening of the spirit. Odysseys' heart ran with longing but the ropes held him and the ship quickly sailed to safer waters.


Sirens

I've been involved for many years as a Performer, Conductor, Composer, Arranger, Teacher and Publisher of Orchestral/Brass music. Most of my output, up to now,has been in the form of printed music for others to play but have discovered the world of DAW's, VSTi's.
Soundcloud is really opening my ears to lots of new types of styles &amp; genres. My musical taste, was already expansive, ranging from Medieval to Minimalist, from Prog-Rock to Big Band Jazz. and almost anything in between. Now I'm enjoying discovering lots of new approaches to musical communication.
Not being a chorus, verse, middle-eight type of musician; I hope I can approach the whole subject from a fresh direction, that others, hopefully, will enjoy.
