Children of the DroneSherwood Cottage, 29/06/06 (June 29, 2006)

[If you're unfamiliar with Children of the Drone, the series of compilations will provide a better overview than these individual sessions, which can be quite 'unrepresentative'.]

Improvised music, recorded in a barn outside Sherwood Cottage, near Newton St. Cyres on 29/06/06.

At the beginning of the first track you can hear Vaughan pointing out a hummingbird hawk-moth to John, which was hovering just outside the barn.

The first piece we actually played lasted for at least half an hour and felt particularly wonderful at the time, but sadly the MiniDisc recorded had accidentally been left on 'pause', so we'll never know if it was as good as we remember.

Track 5 ends with us trailing off and the sounds seguing nicely into the drone of an aircraft passing overhead.

All our tracks get uploaded with the default title "untitled" since, as a collective, we have no straightforward way of deciding on anything! We are inviting listeners to suggest more interesting titles for our pieces. If any occur to you, please leave a little review (it's easy - see the link below) in which you suggest them. You can tell us what you think of our music at the same time. Any suggested titles we like may end up getting adopted.

File names encode recording information, as follows: "010605-d2t1x2-2130to2412.mp3" would be excerpt 2 from track 1 of minidisc 2 (running from 21:30 to 24:12 of that track) recorded during the session on 1st June 2005. Sessions are usually in two parts - we fill one disc, stop for tea, and then fill another disc.
