Somadrone / Locus Solus : Music For Bathyscaphes (click for album download link)
Excerpt / / / Alvin
Recorded between 2008 and 2010 by Somadrone (Neil O’Connor) and Locus Solus (Gavin O’Brien) in Dublin and at EMS (Institute for Electroacoustic Music), Stockholm, Sweden, Music For Bathyscaphes is a collection of six ambient pieces written for a voyage in a bathyscaphe (pronounced /ˈbæθɨskeɪf, ˈbæθɨskæf/). This is a free-diving self-propelled deep sea submersible consisting of a crew cabin similar to a bathysphere, but suspended below a float rather than from a surface cable, as in the classic bathysphere design. The album was made using vintage Serge Modular and Buchla modular synthesizers (courtesy of EMS) along with processed guitars and field recordings.

Very nice album, I’ve listened to it a couple of times these past days with pleasure. The title fits completely with the atmosphere, which is very coherent. Go on, very very nice work.
Thanks for sharing,
Yves.
P.S. have you planned a real journey in a bathyscaphe ?
