Great Flood, The

Imaginative organic electronic music based on C. S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia, and focalized through the perspective of the lion, Aslan. (We love a literary crossover around here.) Nicely narrative, with the song titles serving as helpful descriptors. Ten tracks, mostly flavors of atmospheric techno with interesting polyrhythmic percussion and plunging moments of suspense and emotion. #atmospherictechno #hardgroove #tribaltechno

1. (5:16) Minute-long droney intro with bird calls gives way to a thundering deeply-resonating beat. Flutes and chimes enter the mix before it ends in a cacophonous crash
2. (6:21) Thudding woody techno beat with a nice churning groove
3. (6:49) Deep, pulsating techno with shimmery bright cinematic twists
4. (9:32)Gyrating hardgroove techno that grows slowly as new elements (hi hats, flutes, hand drums, rumbling synth) are added
5. (5:59) Fast rumbly beat with layers maracas/shakers and panpipes. Transitions to a nice, sunny synth medley at the halfway point
6. (6:35) Heavy beat with multilayered percussion and a nice stutter step
7. (3:16) Powerful thudding beat with surreal warm washes
8. (3:52) Chugging cumbia-style beat with didgeridoo effects and gentle strings
9. (6:33) Fast heavy tribal techno with beautiful plucked guitar and string melodies weaving throughout
10. (2:29) Lightning-quick, layered hand drums with ringing horns. An epic outro
