"I was inspired by the beauty in the percussive sound of the bamboo, and how it contrasts with harsher rustling of the wind and rain. I decided to use the recording as the only sound source: everything you hear in the piece is the original recording, manipulated.
"Most of the piece was improvised by running and looping the 5 minute recording of the bamboo forest through my Eurorack modular synthesizer. I tried to focus on making my own storm around the knocks of the bamboo. The other elements in the piece come from running the sample through the filterbanks, granular algorithms, and distortions in Composer's Desktop Project.
"I recorded and mixed the piece on a Tascam Model 12, and then mastered with a (sort of crappy) Behringer Tube Composer, a homemade plate reverb, and a Teac 1/4" tape machine."
