The greatest weapon against free thought isn't fear, but isolation. My track on this avows that Bassel was never alone. Thx @rupertlally https://t.co/BJiN3Hm0ZG

[track] lonesome faraway sounds
Dedicated to the memory of Berta Cáceres and to the ongoing effort to free Bassel Khartabil.

up through the earth or
falling from the sky
warning calls to stay away
no need to amplify[ch.]

PROCESS
Connected to this assignment, and wanted to do some small part to keep Bassel’s cause and case out front. I’m not a foley artist and field recording is not my game, though, so consider this less a soundscape than a track that might run over closing credits.
Married some royalty-free congas, tambourines and trap kit loops on an Acid timeline.…
