07 - Australian Dreaming

We went to Australia for our honeymoon in 2013: I will always remember its landscapes and its very primordial nature. The red center, where Uluru emerges from the desert, is a really magic place. There are really no words to describe the colours of the dawn and of the sunset of "the Rock".
You are sitting in the bush, with an old Aboriginal tribe. The primeval sound of the didgeridoo, the distinctive rhytm of the emu caller and of the stricks will be the background of the "dreamtime", the legends that tell the origin of the world. The Dreamtime is a place beyond time and space in which the past, present, and future exist wholly as one.
I recorded this song almost immediately after we came back from Australia. I spent some weeks in learning the circular brathing on the didgeridoo and I really wanted to fix my memories of the places I visited. For the video shooting I asked the help of my wife... to withstand my music and my crazy experiments was one of the main pillars of our marriage agreement! :D
