Sound Bath 20: [Listen here]

Kaman (@kamana_y) plays her monochord outside in a park in Shatin. We sat under the shade of a tree on a hot spring afternoon. I love this recording because the instrument drone seems to disappear into the eclectic hum of the surrounding environment. Amidst distant traffic, a waterfall feature, karaoke, groundskeeper sweepings, and leaves rustling, the monochord's amorphous sound seems to take the shape of its surroundings, being neither too prominent and nor too subdued. It belongs. It is a wonderful slice of a moment in time.
