Parts mingling

Composition by Rati Baramadze. 

"While listening to the original recording, I instantly had the association of how a mechanism tries to come into action, hundreds of details coming together to make the plane move. I didn't want to use any additional musical instruments when creating the composition, just the original recording and processing it to bring out my association as much as possible. 

"Thousands of mechanical parts are trying to come together for one purpose, for the plane to take off , but in the process they fall apart again and again. To recreate my association I used several processing techniques such as extreme stretching, chopping whole recording by small pieces to get desirable sound, manipulating with tempo."
