"A pond becomes a lake, a breeze becomes a storm, a handful of dust is a desert" - W.G Sebald, The Rings of Saturn

Originally written for the 'Horizions Sauvages' exhibition by painter Marie-Laurence de Chauvingy de Blot, Dungong's accompanying composition is the reification of a shared love of nature - setting out to capture the essence of her painting in musical form. Using natural sound pallets and layered loops, the complex bio-poetics of the ecosystem are explored in the fragility of their restless liminality. Environments in motion. Above all, the compositions are meditations on the importance of preservation.

There we have it then: after-the-fall organic ambience across two full sides. Essentially essential - a blueprint for the next generation of New Age music. The resynchronization of what was, what is and what is yet to be.
