Song of the Siren
As well as being fascinated by space travel and specifically voyages to the Moon, I also had a bit of a phase of imagining underwater worlds and some of the creatures that live there.
I wanted to create a soundtrack to my imaginings and so produced this piece, which started off as a simple soundscape mixing underwater sounds and synthesized manipulations. I then added the keys at the end which my good friend Ken Hollings commented on as sounding somewhere in between Raymond Scott and The BBC Radiophonic Workshop – praise indeed but you can make your own judgment.
Around the same time that I was creating this piece I was also working with the singer Debbie Clair on some other music and I thought it would be nice to see what she could do with the underwater soundscape. I knew that I didn’t really want any words and so she laid down a series of notes which were then mixed and effected.
