about

This composition expresses the sympathetic resonance of objects to sound as an allegory for the empathy required of individuals living within a society. The composition unfolds as a layered reconstruction of piano reverberance and guitar harmonics, foreshadowing the drum and bass entries in free time. With its unorthodox spelling "Resonants", the recording’s title track alludes to our shared existence as tenants in a complex social landscape.

Chandelier Tears Beginning at running time 2:43, recorded as a suite with the title track, this piece was composed while staring at a purchased, yet uninstalled, chandelier placed on the basement floor. The crystals hanging off the fixture are called tears. The music is a sonic impression of light shining through these tears. The ambient guitar, cymbals and production are inspired by Daniel Lanois and Brian Eno – the dream team of 1990s recording production.
