False awakening on a Mediterranean island

"This piece is a personal journey through the experiences of being born and growing up on an island with complex cultural, political, and historical roots. I felt strong connections and disconnections between where I grew up and where I lived afterwards, realising that identity and belonging can continue to evolve in subtle ways. Making every moment of interaction with the space and culture dynamic, as the individual affects the space, and in turn, it affects the individual. 

"I primarily used the recording allocated to me for this project for rhythmic and timbral purposes. In a sense, the selection of the recording was both informed by and, in turn, informed the piece that I was composing. It helped bridge the metal and soundscape genres with its natural timbre and rhythmic qualities."
