The  Gentle Ones_1

The original sound comes from bubbling water, which has been stretched, retimed, and transformed into a sustained mid-to-low-frequency ambient texture. The sound floats through space like a whisper, as if emanating from a sleeping wine glass, reflecting a dreamscape of intoxication and deep, flowing resonance.

Acousmatic Sketch No.3 "The Dream of a Wine Glass" [2025-03-14]

Back from Katmandu, Project Winter 25.
Amazing ambient traffic, bus on Kanti Path to leave downtown
Pastel colours haunt my dream
Flag float, float
These eyes follow me everywhere 
with its Tikka
Katmandu
Excitment,Buzz
Hands clap on the engine bodywork
Acceleration of flow
Reckless, outrunnin'
Left, right, straight ahead
Feel the rush, heat
In the midst of the song 
Of the shoutin' city...

Special thanks to Flow for the support and Damm Drum Machine part.

Kurze Beschreibung

Die Komposition verbindet Alltagsgeräusche wie Schritte auf verschiedenem Untergrund, das Zerreissen von Papier, Streichholz anzünden, Tennisspielen, Händeklatschen, Pferdegetrappel, Maschinengeräusche und ähnliches mit Stimmsamples aus meinem Archiv, die mir vor einiger Zeit die niederländische Mezzo-Sopranistin Jannie Pranger zur Verfügung gestellt hat, und von denen einige wenige elektronisch verfremdet sind. 

Diese beiden Komponenten sind dicht verwoben und bilden eine spannungsvolle, vielschichtige und facettenreiche Musique Concrète. 

Die Alltagsgeräusche werden genauso behandelt wie die vokalen Klänge; so wie man beispielsweise mit Klängen von Perkussionsinstrumenten umgeht, die ja auch grösstenteils geräuschhaft sind. Ein Trommelwirbel, Beckenzischen, Ratsche... oder eben eine elektrische Säge, eine knarrende Tür, zersplitterndes Glas, der Abschlag eines Golfballs, ein Bienenschwarm u.s.w. Die einbezogene Mezzo-Sopran-Stimme ist äussest vielfältig. Schnalz- oder Zischlaute, Flüstern, Sprechen, Singen, Pfeifen, Atmen und alle erdenklichen Töne, die stimmlich möglich sind, kommen vor.

Die Erde ist der bisher einzige bekannte Planet, der klingt; wo man ununterbrochen von Lauten und Geräuschen umgeben ist, die Menschen und Tiere, Wind, Wasser etc. erzeugen. Einen winzigen Ausschnitt dieser einzigartigen klanglichen Vielfalt des Planeten Erde wollte ich in meiner Komposition darstellen und feiern. Das Wort Maa im Titel ist das finnische Wort für Erde/Land.

Short description

The composition combines everyday sounds such as footsteps on various surfaces, the tearing of paper, lighting a match, playing tennis, clapping hands, the clatter of horses, machine noises and the like with voice samples from my archive, which the Dutch mezzo-soprano Jannie Pranger made available to me some time ago, a few of which have been electronically alienated.

These two components are tightly interwoven and form an exciting, multi-layered and multi-faceted musique concrète.

Everyday noises are treated in the same way as vocal sounds, the way you deal with the sounds of percussion instruments, for example, which are also largely noisy. A drum roll, a cymbal crash, a rattle... or an electric saw, a creaking door, shattering glass, the hit of a golf ball, a swarm of bees, etc. The mezzo-soprano voice involved is extremely varied. Snapping or hissing sounds, whispering, speaking, singing, whistling, breathing and every conceivable sound that is vocally possible can be heard.

Earth is the only planet known to date that sounds; where you are constantly surrounded by sounds and noises produced by people and animals, wind, water, etc. I wanted to represent and celebrate a tiny section of this unique sonic diversity of planet Earth in my composition. The word Maa in the title is the Finnish word for earth/land.
