Sea
Lions, Pier 39, San Francisco
Sampled Pygmies (heavily processed)
|
The
technical process used in the creation of Doozvillnavava is very
similar to Urban Paradise. I discovered
the sea lions at Pier 39, San Francisco, during a late night bicycle
ride immediately after having been given an MP3 disc containing several
hours of Pygmy music. I was so impressed with the bizarre sounds of
the sea lions that I returned a couple weeks later with my Walkman and
recorded the basis for Doozvillnavava. Having been introduced
to sea lions and Pygmies at the same time they seemed connected in some
way and I decided to create a pallet of sounds derived exclusively from
the Pygmy music and combine it with the field recording of the sea lions.
As with Urban Paradise only the most minimal processing was used
on the field recording of the sea lions–no looping or effects were
used–while I imposed no limits on the manipulation of the Pygmy
samples; some phrases are looped and manually faded in and out during
the course of the recording while other sounds and phrases are randomly
triggered with LFO's.
