Water
Birth
by The Tunnel Singer (Lee Ellen Shoemaker)
Powerful
crystalline vocal stylings are magically – and naturally – transformed
into a hauntingly beautiful, alien choir in this impressive
offering from avant garde vocalist Lee Ellen Shoemaker.
Recorded
at the "Cistern Chapel," which is a 2 million gallon underground
cistern in Port Townsend, Washington, the Tunnel Singer takes
full advantage of the 45 second reverberation and peculiar sound
wave behavior to evoke dark, shamanic soundscapes.
Using
only her voice, which sounds like a distant spirit calling from
the womb of Mother Earth, Lee Ellen creates a grounding, ambient
space for inner exploration and healing which is unlike anything
you’ve heard before.
Recommended.
