Mike Oldfield Documentary

Electro-Acoustic Sound Composition By Thomas Charles Nicholls. 
Calming and tempestuous, the sea beholds a beauty that is both awe-inspiring and devastating. The orbit of the lunar cycle affects the tidal movements, transforming it from a glass-like tranquillity to nightmarish ferocity. These dualistic forces are enveloped in this piece, as the moonlight's iridescence shines over the changing topography of the ocean.
This music was made from an assortment of pitched and non-pitched sounds, from violin, human voice, flute, synthesizer and electric guitar, to water-filled cans, cabbage stabbings, party-popper explosions, metallic rattlings and kettle hisses.
