Catalepsis

Catalepsis: a suspended state of trance-like immobility.

Urgent and piercing layers of sound emerge from the darkness. Sonic pulses of energy continue for hours, provoking a hypnotic state in those who take the time to listen.

Modified field recordings of insect stridulation were used in creating this drone piece.

  Thanks. I tried to stretch the original field recordings to a point just beyond recognisability, yet still imitate the drone-like nature of insect sounds.
