*The video clip is from AT&T archives - Telephone Switchboard (Old and New), from the 1920's onward. We just cut and select a few scenes and speed it up a little bit to sync and match the timing of our audio. We immediately like and chose this AT&T video clip for this track because it really (obviously) has the feel and vibes of the sound per se.  We also like the lo-fi look of it and the patching of cables and dialing on those massive machines.

Gen Thalz ~ catacombs [acousmatic|image to sound}soundscape]



*This is our entry for the Sound Interpretation Dedication to Paris posted on Experimental Music (group). We've never been to Paris that's why we used the medium from where we got some basic info and perceptions about this city, and that is:

- a mini tour guide video on Paris
- two photos of Louvre Pryramid during night and

*We then transformed these video and photos into audio files as our “raw sounds” which is kind a glitchy, harsh and noisy at first. Next, by doing some sonic alchemy and aural sorcery (naks!) ;), we mold these raw sounds into what we feel about this City of Lights - very serene, modern yet classical, seductive and secretive. And like all the cities in the world, we knew Paris also have a dark side, flaws, and haunting memories like the catacombs beneath it. With these mindset, we created this soundscape.

Track: Catacombs
Genre: Electronic
Style: ambient, drone, minimal
Year:2015

*The video is an actual found footage of a man lost in this massive Catacombs of Paris. We manipulate it in some degree just to satisfied our impulsive needs of "What if?".

We hope you enjoy it as we enjoy the process. Thank you... :)
