Bombarde sample
Gurdonark also requested a short bombarde sample, so I recorded this just now and sent to him. I'm looking forward to get it back, modified beyond recognition.
Modernistic, symphonic nyckelharpa
Early this morning, Gurdonark sent me "Melankoli", a piece he made from my nyckelharpa-sample of yesterday. I was astonished.
He had turned it into a modernist symphony. The sound is gigantic and dark, yet shimmering with faint light. It sounds like a doubled string orchestra in a concert hall. There is a pulse in it, or perhaps more of a sweeping sensation. It could be the soundtrack of a Bill Viola-video (who inspires me greatly, by the way). Partly, it sounds very classical, and partly, the Swedish folklore shines through, just a little bit.
Since it may be released in the near future, I cannot post it here yet. Maybe I'll get back to it in another post soon, though.
