Samsara (Shelter In Place no. 12)

for bamboo Spring flute, Animoog & Drone FX virtual synths, ambient sound recordings, sound design

This piece began with an ambient recording I made that captured the sound of a bumblebee in rhododendron flowers, followed by a walk around to capture bird sounds and the breeze in the trees. I added virtual synths as drones and (Indian) raga-style melody fragments. The Spring flute—a custom 8-hole bamboo flute made by Peter Spring—was added last, played live in response to the rest of the mix.
