about

New solo pipes track “Ariane 01”, recorded using a Tascam DR-100. No overdubs, just solo acoustic smallpipes.

The video on YouTube was shot the same day, round at the ESA "Ariane" earth station, just south of North East Bay on Ascension Island, South Atlantic. This spot’s the main highway for Ascension Frigatebirds going to & from their day’s fishing.

Watching the frigate birds gliding, is a bit like listening to the shifting harmonics within the pipes’ drone. Trying to film the birds up close like this, is a bit like trying to “play” the overtones; at the mercy of wherever they want to go next, carefully shifting posture and body pressure against the pipes, trying to “focus” on one or other member of a group of constantly moving subjects.
