Spring ritual

"After listening to the sample, we started working on it isolating the voice, guitar, and other ambient sounds. By manipulating these elements, we created the main synths and textures that form the piece. We instinctively imagined a story centred around an unknown civilisation, witnessing a mysterious ritual, after having created the first synth sound, which you can hear at the very beginning. "One should picture being aboard a ship with a life of its own, its breathing perceptible through the textures of the composition. The ship is docked on the coast near the lighthouse where the original recording was captured, in an alternate version of Germany, different from the one we know.* "A man and his followers are in the midst of a ritual, which is followed by the crafting of a mysterious object and the awakening of an entity at the end of the piece. We sense euphoric people moving through the space, expressing themselves with laughter and various vocalizations. The chorus of followers responds to the one leading the ritual, and the ship reacts to the stimulation of what is happening within it. "We then added orchestral elements that we felt suited the unsettling and mysterious atmosphere we aimed to evoke." *But please feel free to use your imagination while listening!
