The Mariana Trench is located in the
Pacific Ocean, just east of the 14
Mariana Islands near Japan.
It is the deepest part of the Earth's
oceans, and the deepest location of the
Earth itself.
It was created by ocean-to-ocean
subduction, a phenomena in which a plate
topped by oceanic crust is forced below
another plate topped by oceanic crust.
The Mariana Trench CD was put together
from two very long loop improvisations
recorded during snow storms. The
equipment used was relatively simple; a
toy synthesizer and many classic guitar
pedals operated with great care (the
calm of the snow storms made that
possible). The results were then mixed
and processed through more sophisticated
effects in order to give the listener
the impression that the whole recording
had taken place thousands of fathoms
deep.
Let there be no interruption in your
descent, as you experience David
Kristian's deep and challenging Mariana
Trench. Markers have been provided for
you to use as reference points in the
event that you start getting the bends
during the album's 68 minute running
time.
Headphones and any other audio diving
gears are highly recommended.
