◦ “voices” is the place where we ask, artists reply and you read.
here we got:
Natas Kunas
answering some questions. We have already observed his ambient / drone / noise work here.
[1. IDEA]
■ The A. O.: The track from “Blue Radiance” that we prefer is “A Vast Profound”. Can you tell us how it came to light?
► Natas Kunas: Good pick! It was actually the very first track made for the album. I had just quit my day job and arrived at a month-long residency in rural Estonia. Filled to the brim with emotions I started playing and condensed that fleeting moment into “A Vast Profound”. Nearly all of it was done on a portable modular synthesizer, using four voices (parts), with great focus on tonal quality and additional layering of the same, but differently processed/altered tracks. During that month in Estonia I did almost the entirety of the album.
