I've always been intrigued by how the moon affects the Earth's tides, so when this prompt came up, I started looking into how I could sonically represent this. I went down multiple rabbit holes and learnt about tidal bores - spectacular expressions of the moon's effects on the tides of a river, where a wave [or series of waves] rush upstream against the current.
I found a study by Hubert Chanson on the acoustic properties of a tidal bore, and used those figures to create my own.
A haunting, beautiful, autobiographical record that uses samples of old gospel records to wrestle with faith and unbelief. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 2, 2021
