| Description: | NEPTUNE IS A FULL-LENGTH EXPERIMENTAL DOOM-DRONE PROGRAM WITH THE MOONS OF THE
PLANET FEATURED IN VARIED MOVEMENTS THROUGHOUT THE WORK, CONTRIBUTING AS
ELEMENTS TOWARDS A FULL TRANSCENDENT ODYSSEY.
NEPTUNE takes the audience on a journey to the confines of the solar system with
music inspired by the planet and its moons. Using strings, heavy doom and drone
sounds, synthesizers, experimental techniques, and sound art elements, the piece
aims to share the experience of the intense and abyssal nature of deep waters
and the vastness of celestial space. Exploring these mysterious and
uncontrollable forces of nature, questions about our relationship as humans to
forces of these magnitudes are considered, providing a sonic soundscape to
contemplate our position and placement in the universe.
Neptune is a full-length experimental doom-drone program with the moons of the
planet featured in varied movements throughout the work, contributing as
elements towards a full transcendent odyssey. The piece is written for strings,
percussion, synthesizers, electronics, and amplified instruments.
ANJU SINGH
Anju experiments with texture, sound, images, and compositional structure in her
practice and work as a sound designer, composer, multi-instrumentalist,
performer, noise/sound artist, media artist, and curator. Her work engages in a
practice of deconstruction and reanimation as process-based methods and plays
with the application of contrasting themes and boundary/volume stressing
experimental elements. As an interdisciplinary artist, she works in music, media
arts, performance, theatre, film and opera. She has toured, presented and
performed her work across Canada, in Europe, Brazil, Mexico, Japan, and the
United States.
