Motorcycles race around a fairground Wall of Death; lightning strikes the ground just feet away; parrot calls mix with the chanting of priests inside a South Indian temple; a sinister helicopter hovers directly overhead... The
sounds that make up Bilocation were binaurally recorded over a period of many
years - in some very strange locations: Bilocation uses a new technique to process these Binaural recordings into 5.1 surround, so they can be played on any Home Cinema system. Rather like 'audio holograms' the original locations are recreated three-dimensionally in the listening environment. If this happens to be your living room, the effect is very strange: the walls seem to disappear! The ceiling disappears too, as aircraft and birds fly overhead. But the album mixes together images of different sized acoustic spaces, so you seem to be in several places at once! |

| The
Golgumbaz in Bijapur, Southern India, has the 2nd biggest dome in the world:
38 metres across. In the top is a 'whispering gallery' with an echo that repeats
10 times. But this is India so no-one whispers - they shout, scream and clap! The resultant sound at the top of the dome is awesome, as human sounds mix with the cries of swallows that fly through the archways far below. | ||||||||||
