El Retorno del Caleidoscopio Cromático

Nature’s wastefulness seems quietly obscene. It’s been doing that all week:
making beauty, and throwing it away, and making more.

- Tony Hoagland, A Color of the Sky.

Back by demand. Yet another fix of minimal rhythms and slowly shifting gauzy soundscapes. Fans of the first ‘Caleidoscopio Cromático’ will be particulary pleased with this one… I think it hits the same sort of nerve; whereas part 2 was a somewhat inconsistent experiment with more focus on rhythm, this one keeps the same sort of melodic vein and open atmosphere of the first offering. Hope you enjoy.

    Martyn’s remix of Efdemin sounds a lot like an Aphex Twin song… but I can’t remember which one it is! Help!

  18. Chris says:

    Hey Tapefunction,

    Pretty sure the Aphex song you’re thinking of is ‘Maximum Electronica’. Sounds a hell of a lot like it to me

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
