Chant d’automne

"To create this sound piece, I sampled the rhythms from the field recording and turned them into a loop. I detuned it slightly. I isolated a fragment of the voice from the recording and altered it as well. With these two elements, I added synthesizers with heavy reverb and distortion. The whole piece sits on the edge of the industrial genre; the traditional drums become almost like hammers or hydraulic presses. "Baudelaire writes in Autumn Song: Rocked by this monotonous pounding, I seem to hear Nails driven hurriedly into a coffin somewhere. For whom?—Only yesterday it was summer; now it is autumn! This mysterious sound echoes like a departure."  Wat Ku Tao celebration, Chiang Mai reimagined by Laville.
