about

Descension captures a sense of revolving sound and space, much like the feeling of helicopters circling above or the way un-localized sound disperses in underground concrete spaces.

In Descension, the majority of the beating drones are samples of modified saxophone, re-performed as a keyboard instrument. The use of shifting resonance to enhance certain harmonics and textures is a key way the drones evolve over time.

Descension was made for the Next Wave Festival and Liquid Architecture event Sisters Akousmatica, a city-scale radio orchestra in Melbourne in 2016.

"The way in which this pulses, the result is more of a warming glow than a downward spiral. Though the deeper you listen the more directionless this may seem, almost a bit of a mirage in terms of the way it takes over space, yet has this golden hazy glaze oozing from its seams" (Toneshift)
