Disquiet Junto Project 0441: Three Stones.
The Assignment: Make music that explores territory sonically.

At the seashore of the Côte d'Azur (France) you rarely have a sandy beach, most of the time you have pebble beaches. With every wave the pebbles make an unsurpassable and characteristic noise. Sadly I never managed to field record this sound, due to windy noises, general vacation lazyness, forgotten recorders, empty batteries … (it's like curse!)

So this track is a mixture of field recordings from the Côte d'Azur (waves and voices) and around 20 samples of three stones (from those pebble beaches), recorded today for this track. Rhythmic parts have been looped in Ableton and some non-rhythmic samples have been mangled by a granular sampler, which created a sound that was sometimes astonishingly close to the original.
