Traditional / experimental practice

Deep Sea · Twilight Zone

The light fades: the waves at the surface can no longer be heard, the sound turns into a lower, wider mass; sparse rumbles come from afar. A representational synthesis, not a hydrophone recording. There is no claim of any effect.

The same recipe with another seed: the raindrops, the order of the birds or the path of the chords change; the rules and evidence level stay the same.

Compare with another sound

Hear both at the same loudness; drag the slider to the middle and they blend.

These two sounds can't share one recipe (different tuning or effects): listen to the samples one after the other.
