“Specimens” by Mare Monstrum, aka Darkduction.
This experimental work completely recorded in an improvised take, consists of three tracks that will transport you to the abyssal confines of the ocean, where light fades and mystery reigns. Inspired by the sounds and frequencies of the creatures that inhabit the bottom of the sea, “Specimens” is an aural exploration of a hidden and fascinating world.
Track 1: “Specimens I”.
The journey begins with “Specimens I,” a composition that captures the vastness and solitude of the ocean depths. Using dark drones and deep reverberations, this track evokes the constant murmur of abyssal currents and echoes of distant sounds. Elements of underwater percussion and ethereal synthesizers mimic the hidden language of deep sea species, creating an immersive atmosphere that invites introspection and wonder.
Track 2: “Specimens II”.
The second track, “Specimens II,” explores the phenomenon of bioluminescence in abyssal creatures. With sonic textures that glow and sizzle, this piece plays with rhythmic pulses and twinkling melodies that represent the luminous and chemical signals used by marine organisms to communicate in the dark. Electronic whispers and layers of white noise simulate an environment where the visible and the invisible intertwine, creating a mesmerizing and enigmatic sound tapestry.
Track 3: “Specimens III”.
The journey concludes with “Specimens III,” an immersion into the deep, resonant sounds of the oceanic trenches. This track combines vibrant low frequencies with slow, pulsating rhythms, evoking the sensation of tectonic movement and the presence of hidden giants. Processed sound effects simulate the creaking and groaning of the earth's plates and the strange songs of abyssal creatures.
“Specimens” is a sonic odyssey that captures the essence of the unknown and celebrates the richness of abyssal life.
Mare Monstrum aka Darkduction invites you to dive into these sonic depths and discover the secrets that the ocean jealously guards.
