'PTERANODON'

SAMPLES

'The Turning Step': mp3

'Pteranodon' Excerpt: mp3

'Pteranodon' is an electronic soundscape in two parts. In its more complex moments it references traditional Arabian songs, with a nod to the contemporary world of Arabian and African pop remixes. Otherwise it builds primarily on simple chord loops and scales, with an emphasis on creating a sense of space, with distinct plateaus within the music, often carried by the Arabian references. It is also in part inspired by Jorge Luis Borge's 'Imaginary Beings', referred to in the lyrics of 'A Bao A Qu', the second part of the soundscape.

'THE IRON MOUNTAIN'

COMING AUGUST 2008

SAMPLE

'Qaanaaq': mp3

'The Iron Mountain' was inspired by the life of Minik - the New York Eskimo.

In the 1890s a group of American explorers befriended a group of Polar Eskimos, a community of people who had never made contact with the outside world before, who had only ever seen snow, water and sealions. The American explorers were searching for the Iron Mountain - three huge meteorites believed to have impacted on the polar ice cap. The Eskimos knew where the meteorites were, and worshipped them as ‘the woman hurled from the sky’, with her dog and her tent.

Once found, in the summer of 1897, the Iron Mountain was prepared for shipping back to New York. The American explorers decided to bring back a small group of Eskimos with the meteorites, to corroborate their stories, and for anthropological research.
