Back From the Stars

Happy Funktober Friends!
I hope you’ve all been enjoying the month of new tunes
It’s been quite an expedition, but the end of month looms!

Diving into this adventure of sharing music each day,
Will I do this next year?.. it's so hard to say.. 
But as pleased as I am that it is almost November 
It's been fun sharing music and one to remember!

Thank-you friends for words that kept me going,
The vibrations of love, they keep me a flowing!

I do hope the music brings some smiles and cheers
Look forward to seeing y’all soon and sinking some beers!

DISCOFORM!

On a recent trip down to Melbourne, Phil spent a couple of days with Timmus at his place in the foothills of the Dandenong ranges.

One day, they took their digital audio recorders down to the local wetlands for an audio adventure, collecting sounds and experiences that they’ve woven together in this sonic postcard from Upper Ferntree Gully.

They started at the marshes, with birds and frogs heralding their arrival, but which soon went quiet.

They meander through the bush, discovering all sorts of sounds, and coming across a drone pilot practising for his license, the drone’s motor whirring an electric song. 

Encountering the zing and thwack of the local archery range, finding archers firing arrows at wooden targets with their bows.

Pausing by the creek, little waterfalls trickling over rocks, they angle their microphones into the gully to record the water fumbling down the slope.

Walking up the path, the crunch of gravel underfoot, Timmus taking off into the distance, then returning with increasing velocity, ending with a skid right next to the microphone.

The tap of drumsticks on a metal sign, rhythmic hand claps and finger snaps in the reverb chamber created by a strange metal bin, its purpose unknown.

All these sounds and more, woven together to tell this little story, the only additions being a slowed down synth, tuning forks and a simple loping baseline.

All these sounds and more, woven together to tell this little story, the only additions being a slowed down synth, solfeggio frequency tuning forks, heart chakra crystal bowl and a simple loping bassline created with a semi acoustic bass guitar. 

To best enjoy, find a quiet spot where you won’t be disturbed for 10 minutes, whack some headphones on and take off on a sonic journey into the wilderness of Upper Ferntree Gully.

Everything Is Moving

Spaced Out

A journey through a whole range of human emotions.
Close your eyes and try to feel what it creates within you.
Let the waves invade you and focus on yourself.

Detachment

Gain Stage

Stars trace their paths in reverse, bending against familiar order

The portal holds shifting arcs of turquoise and amber,
circling like echoes of forgotten laws

A sense of dissonance lingers, yet within the tension a hidden harmony breathes
