Album Notes & Community Reviews
The veteran Belgian avant-garde composer presents a massive, deeply surreal electroacoustic journey simulating travel across global landscapes. The dizzying sound collage intertwines traditional indigenous music, harsh environmental recordings, and manipulated animal sounds into an overwhelming, highly chaotic acousmatic tapestry.
