UNDERTOW

A stereo sea instrument for music and film. One control from glassy to phenomenal; every wave rolls in from the horizon, breaks, peels along the shore and drags back down. Every wave you hear, you see.

The demo needs JavaScript switched on.

Pick what the water drags back over: sand that hisses, shingle that rattles for ages, rocks that slap and gurgle, a harbour wall that just takes the hit. Drift makes every wave a little different, and now and then a set of big ones rolls in.

Stand on the open shore, under the pier, in a sea cave, up on the cliff, in a beach hut, or under the water. Hold a note and the bell buoy rings in your key, the stones in the backwash sing, and the foghorn sounds your root far away.
