chant of birds from afar collapsing in the mist of my skinny chords

from "Gimel" by fragments of an empire

about

here´s the way I´ve recorded that piece of music:
I took an old casset-recorder and made some fieldrecordings with birds singing in the background. I took that recorder to my guitar and hold it close to the pickups, plug in some guitar effects (mostly reverbs) and pressed play. All of it was recorded on my loopstation. Onwards I played the loopstation at the same time i´ve played my chords (with my reverb-pedals on) and recorded all of it with my shitty digital-camera. Ater that i hold the speaker of the camera to the picups and again i loop the whole mess through my effect pedals. At this point Hannes recorded everything in one shot!
I think ther´s a grief in every technical "being".
Mabe you can hear it on this track.
