Name: Borneo rainforest - Calm Rain by George Vlad in Borneo 2020
Duration: 11 min 5 s
Description: Listen to gentle rain falling in the rainforests of Borneo, only interrupted by soft frog calls, occasional bird chirps and a delicate insect chorus. Recorded in with Sony PCM A10 and Lom MikroUsi micropohones. Longer version on Youtube at https://youtu.be/W3nrqOPc5BE

Interesting note: as soon as this track began to play, I got a strong sense-memory of rainfall in the Ozark Mountains where I grew up. I involuntarily imagined the sweet smell of oak, hickory, sumac and pine in spring rain. Thanks!

Borneo 2020

The soundscape in the Borneo rainforest is incredibly lush and varied. Most birds stop singing at night, but that's when insects and frogs take over. Longer version at https://youtu.be/HDrUq-eF_ZA

Night In The Borneo Jungle

It's a calm day at Maliau Basin in Sabah, Malaysia. The dawn chorus is a distant memory and birds seem to be calling for the sheer pleasure of it. Insects dominate the soundscape though with their loud and constant chorus. Longer version at https://youtu.be/a0ORDlC7DkM

Lazy afternoon in Borneo

Thunderstorms sound absolutely fascinating in the rainforest as the microphones pick up the beautiful detail of water droplets hitting the vegetation. Longer version at https://youtu.be/MN_JT6hAyMs

Thunderstorm in the Borneo rainforest

The Empress cicada starts calling as the sun sets, just as daytime birds are winding down their calls and nighttime creatures are waking up. You first hear distant ones, and it almost sounds like some industrial metal cutting process. Long version at https://youtu.be/6ZPDYlvj7MM

The weird sound of the Empress cicada

In the muse of the absent there is a bit of patience, a bit of being grateful to be alive and a lot is magic without time or my forgetfulness.
Thank you very much Jennifer for reminding me. https://soundcloud.com/jenniferroe

INDOORS LIGHT INFINITE from  JENNIFER ROE

Originally published with the title: Final coda, this song was born during the study for the live performance of the song: Fermo immagine, in the summer of 2022. It is the fourth and last of the collection: Testimoni di quel che resta, which has been the origin of all the other songs.  (If we can say so) the songs following the first are, in some ways, "processing waste" from a single harmonic cell that was born on the guitar during the winter of 2019 .. The other leitmotif of the songs is based on reflections on the concepts of death and abandonment, given that (again in the same year) I had the opportunity to deal with these issues due to a family bereavement.
Finally I managed to update the song with new small solutions found up to now compared to the previous version, I had been trying for some time since I practice playing it almost every day.

Created using Virtual ANS and normalized in Audacity for Disquiet Junto 0554, Cage Chord. Any piece submitted was intended to be loopable.

Used pulses in close drone, not only according to chord notes, but in upper registers, within notes to play with additive heterodying/intermodulation, as notes were synthetic, not inherently full of overtones etc. Also to take some cue from the chromatically adjacent notes in the chord notes.

None of it done with fine resolution to encourage any idiomatic lo-fi glitchyness in the program.

For ""A box of cloud", 
I used my latest invented instrument, the Mosesa15 to record with and Paulo Chagas used his bass clarinet.
Listen to how we push dynamics, timbre and tone to make this piece work.
It was initiated as an exchange of musical gifts to each other and for us.

One of my favourite soundscapes to listen to and record is that of rainforest hills. Get immersed into the complex layers of calls as the day progresses. Long version at https://youtu.be/pXi0lIfNkA0
