khov Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 2 new records with field recordings from TOUCH / Ash International: Geir Jenssen Cho Oyu 8201 m - Field Recordings From Tibet CD Ash International, ASH71CD These recordings were made by Jenssen while climbing Cho Oyu in Tibet in September and October 2001. Cho Oyu is the sixth highest mountain in the world at 8201 meters, situated in the Himalayas near Mount Everest, on the Tibetan/Nepalese border. This album may be regarded as the soundtrack to the film of this journey, also containing some of the source material for the most recent Biosphere album, Dropsonde. http://www.biosphere.no/cho_oyu -------- Chris Watson ¬ BJ Nilsen Storm Sleevenotes: "During December 2000 several significant storm fronts developed across the North Sea and Scandinavia. Benny remarked to me that he had recorded some of these on the Baltic coast and proposed a collaborative cd project based around our mutual interests in the rhythms and music created when the elements combine over land and out to sea. We spent the next few years gathering recordings on our respective coastlines and islands during the very active weather windows during the autumnal equinox and winter solstice. This was focused around our following one particular cyclonic system, which veers over Snipe Point on Lindisfarne to the Isle of May in the Firth of Forth, and finally descends upon Öland and Gotland where Benny listened in with a favourite pair of Sennheiser omnidirectional microphones. Chris Watson, Newcastle upon Tyne, August 2006" out soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
