Explores Biotopia [WAV]

FULL INFO BELOW:

So much of music throughout history has been inspired by birdsong, animal calls, and the natural sonic beauty of nature. And from an early age, Elliott Sharp became entranced by those very sounds. He had always been fascinated by birds and insects, industrial processes and machines, shortwave radio, and unearthly electronics. He began to develop his skills on guitars, woodwinds, and synthesizers, in addition to learning the craft of playing blues, jazz, and rock, in order to mimic some of the sounds in of nature; both in real and imagined environments.

This desire led Elliott to develop of a number of unorthodox and extended techniques which opened up a new sonic universe that could be applied to soundtrack, choreographic work, and experimental music. He further evolved these approaches and made use of them in electronic dance music and sound installations at museums across the world. His research continues to this day and Splice was lucky enough to curate a collection of these fauna inspired musical artifacts.

Splice Explores: Biotopia is an imagined word of sound with mythical and hyperreal creatures, strange grooves, exotic melodies, and textures and ambiences that summon surreal animal calls and landscapes. Using unorthodox techniques and layers of FX, Elliott has created a bizarre and beautiful collection of mimicked animal and nature sounds entirely using synths and processed instruments. Whether you need an otherworldly effect for your sci-fi score or are in search of a truly strange sound to make your track stand out you have finally reached the sonic oasis of Biotopia.
