Fragilis by Charles MacInnes

Beneath a delicate bed of solo violin harmonics (original music) we hear the intermittent call of the “white-lipped foam frog”. He is formally identified as the music of Boyd Raeburn and His Orchestra playing “Tonsilectomy” comes in and out of focus. The groove is jagged and oft interrupted by piano sounds (original music) as well as an “astrophysical sonified x-ray” that has been squeezed through Soniccouture’s tube-based Novachord.
