A view 2my soul

A man from Cuba tells us about his gods. He is a priest -as everybody can be a priest- in his religion santeria.
You need to listen with good headphones. PC-speakers don't reproduce the low Gran Cassa that is underlying the language.

Many thanks to my friend Louis Aguirre who inspired me to write this music and to the what-ifblog-project of which it is a part(www.what-ifblog.net). Image:  Eleggua (Papa Legba, Eshu) cement head for religious observance (Santeria), Thomas Altfather Good, Creative Commons.

"Some people referred to the DRGNs as the dragons . . . that generation was designed to be terrifically strong."
Serge, to Isabel, in Gravity Wing (https://igg.me/at/gravity-wing/x)

New Canada Engines is a spinoff album from Gravity Wing, my novel and soundtrack set on the planet of New Canada. In the story, NCE a company that builds spaceship engines. Founded by a pioneering couple on this new world, they company makes huge strides in innovation, eventually dominating the spaceship engine market.

For FAWM 2017 I am testing and building spaceship engines through ambient glitch soundscapes. Each track represents an engine built by NCE. The next track is a new layer or rework, building on and extrapolating from the previous piece, just as if each piece were a spaceship engine: built, test-flown, reworked, improved.

NCE 2 is the first proper build. Flight tests are being carried out.

I composed this track based on NCE 1 - prototype, which was entirely comprised of samples of a singing airplane engine. To this I added touches of synths, acoustic viola harmonics, more bitcrusher, and digital strings subtly quoting fragments of Serge’s Song (http://vimeo.com/clioem/serge), a classical piece that is an essential part of the Gravity Wing soundtrack.
