The Gloup :: Binary Dust

from Binary Dust (whole album) by Gavin Starks

/

about

Inspired by a deep blowhole in the Orkney Islands off Northern Scotland, The Gloup is a place out of which wild waves crash, out of which sounds of the ocean, the wind and sea creatures fuse into one.

Close to an ancient Celtic Christian monastic site, The Gloup is full of strange and wonderful noises, screaming out from a past we seem obsessed with trying to understand and dig out of the ground.

A play with the tides, a play with times; the piece is divided into four movements, starting and ending with the ever-repeating heave of the waves, the crashing and the heaving of the waves, the whispering of the wind through wet chasms, the myriad indistinguishable sounds of creatures living deep in the caves.


Listening Tips
Stereo source is suitable for playback, however there are many strong resonant frequencies in the piece for which the more solid the speakers, the better. As with all pieces, sub-woofers are recommended.
