| | | | | Description : | Recordings from 1978 by David Toop of Yanomami ritual songs, shamanistic cérémonies and rainforest sounds.
The voices of spirits and animal familiars, ventriloquial illusions of sound in dark spaces, secret spirit languages, the clap of thunder that links shamanic trance with the sleep language of Finnegans Wake...
Out of these passages of the everyday, intensity flares like flames caught by a gust of wind.
Skin burns or oozes blood, the wind blows up havoc as the spirits move about.
