Sonniss.com releases Dark Deepsea Drones

An unusual collection of deep, dark rumbling and slightly aquatic drones.

Each drone tells a story that is represented by the title of that drone.

The pack was created with different uses in mind.From synchronization (chopped up or as a whole) to further sound design and or as a deep, relaxing listening experience.

9 drones, ranging from 2 to over 12 minutes in length for a total of over 58 minutes.
32bit / 96khz.

With this pack I wanted to use a fresh, different approach to the drone concept,

Talibé documentary distributed in Portugal and Austria

Thanks to Journeyman Films, our documentary about the Talibé has been sold (after being picked up by Vranckx in Belgium) to Portuguese and Austrian TV channels !!!
The goal of the docu is to show what is going on without judging. To bring a balanced image and clearly point out what the source of these problems is – poverty and the abscence of an involved government.
