Rain Contemplation - Kosmosky tongue drum and rain forest background

  • 4 years ago
Improvisation on a theme.

This is recorded with a hand-beaten Kosmosky Om Tongue Drum with a 10 notes B Astral scale. It has two sides (the other side has a Shiraz scale), tongues on both sides start vibrating in unison, which gives it an incredible sustain as you can hear in the video (no extra reverb added!). It makes it very suitable to play slow melodies like this one. I absolutely love this instrument which is also a real work of art with the beautiful engraving and finish! Thanks Kosmosky!

Recorded using a portable H1n recording device which does quite a good job. Mixed with Free Software: Linux, Audacity, Kdenlive, Synfig Studio, and a custom program to detect notes and generate a video with waves from the audio.

While listening to the music, you can admire the Flaming Star Nebula.

The background rain forest is thanks to this page: http://www.orangefreesounds.com/rainforest-sounds/
