Elements of Rhythm: Air 💨

The natural world is dominated by rhythm – from the daily back-and-forth bounce of the tides, to the intricate swing of birdsong. Humans are, of course, part of the natural world. Taking inspiration from the elements, this four part series explores drumming and percussion from around the world, past and present. The final episode is inspired by the invisible shifting forces of air: Air is everywhere, all around us. It occupies all space, negative and positive, out of sight - only to be heard and felt. Completely still, or a force that can move, it’s unpredictable, moving and turning. We delve into synthesised rhythm, erratic drum patterns, kinetic energy as electronic sound.
