This is the sound design of the promo video made for D&D Creations, a 3D content development studio. 

Made by George Krallis (CG), Ioannis Varelidis (Music Score) and Kostas Loukovikas (Sound Design), in order to light D&D's start up webninar sessions of Vue masterclasses.

Watch the video here:

For the sound design a coffee mixer turned into a spooky alarm siren, a microwave in operation into the sub moody industrial ambience, several recordings of a bicycle ball bearing used for mapping the turning drills & a ping pong ball, rubbed in a pan, became the sound of the turning gears. 

Hope to enjoy it!

The piece was used for a radioproduction of Dario SanFilipo and myself in 2015 - Feedback Fire Freezes (for Ö1 Art's radio).
For this work, Florian Kindlinger and me did some variations of Alvin Lucier's composition 'i am sitting in a room' inside a glacier gap up 3200 meters in the alps of Ötztal . source material are some waterdrops that could be heard inside the cave (no speech was used) ; recorded with four microphones spread through the crevasse on a distance of about hundred meters ... these recordings play a major part in the compositional sequel of DECOMPOSITION . After 'desert sound' (2013) followed 'E#' (2014) and Illusion / Desert Bloom (2016)

E# / DECOMPOSITION II - excerpt

I wrote this composition for the Art Magazine http://www.vacuummag.com/issue-4-fade/ ,for the "Fade" issue.
Why an orchestral composition? 
Because bowed instruments are the only acoustic instruments which can properly "fade".

Fading Harmonics

Fragments of acoustic memories.
Composed of field recordings and Farfisa organ.
Recorded on tape in Cremona and Göteborg, 2011-2014.

Unknown Liturgy

Fade is a musical theme trying to depict in a surreal way the course of a man's life to death. We born from chaos, rise, fade away and suddenly bite the dust.
