Glistening Examples is pleased to present this new album from Thomas Tilly.
“Codex Amphibia (an interpretation of the explosive breeding phenomenon)”

This project comes from a 2016 research field session realized with Antoine Fouquet, Research associate at The French National Center for Scientific Research; “Ecology, environment and interactions in Amazonian systems Lab” (LEEISA); and the “Evolution and Biological diversity Lab”.   Thomas then composed these tracks from unprocessed raw field recordings and interspersed sinewave structures in 2017.
It’s a truly mesmerizing handwoven audio tapestry!

When purchasing the tangible Hylidae Edition CD from the Glistening Examples Bandcamp site, you will also receive a download code for a digital copy of the album along with a PDF of the composer’s notes regarding this project (all too elaborate to be included in the jewel case packaging). This was quite an ambitious project!
If you’re curious, the PDF is also available here:

This album is available on the GLEX Bandcamp site for streaming, download, or as a CD.
