about

A deeply meditative interpretation of our planet as a living organism, with its pulse, breath, rhythms and cycles. In this ambient recording, composer Marjorie de Muynck bends and reinvents the boundaries between sound and music through seldom heard harmonics created with acoustic instruments. In the Key of Earth is my interpretation of the primordial, says de Muynck, when the sounds and harmonics of creation become musical.

All acoustic sounds were created specifically for this recording. Many of the tones heard are "unstuck" tones (overtones and harmonics) which are featured compositional elements. All instruments were played live to the fundamental track of the drone/pulse. No synthesized, sampled, or pre-recorded sounds were used.
