Ember - DJ training Dion & Toltech - March 2025 Bali

This track is made out from different sounds I recorded in Parisian RER C (kind of a mix between a metro and a suburban train). I spent 10-15 minutes blocked in a broken train near Gare d'Austerlitz, and the train was producing amazing sounds as if it was crying, lamenting about its difficult life. At the same time, an indian woman was singing for money in this train, I actually used her voice treated with some posteffects in this track. I also used a recording of a sitar I made while I was travelling in Lyon, France. I spent 2 hours in Pick&Bosch musical shop recording different exotic instruments and I picked up this sitar sound to fit it with the train's lament.
