Akkamiau - Xiao
(Soundtrack for a grounding ritual VOLTAGE 2.0)
cat# Detund LTD 87

"Akkamiau - Xiao" unveils the evocative soundtrack "VOLTAGE 2.0," tailored for a grounding ritual. This composition explores the tension between natural and artificial structures, symbolising the exchange of energies in our environment.
Guiding listeners through the struggle of a natural force in a diminishing space, the piece underscores the urgency of our environmental concerns. "Xiao" creatively melds the human voice—a powerful melodic instrument capturing instant emotions—and Taoist whistling, linking sound to the basic elements of nature and organs of the human body. AI algorithms reinterpret these expressions in the digital realm.
Reworked samples blend with electrical currents running via Moog synthesisers, merging human and artificial, organic and inorganic elements. The soundtrack resonates with emotional states, offering a healing experience by releasing tension from memories and traumas through dance movements. "Akkamiau - Xiao" crafts a harmonious blend of nature, technology, and emotion in a captivating auditory journey.
