The Itinerant Audio project ( https://thehardcoreoverdogs.blogspot.com/2024/01/itinerant-audio-music-for-sonic.html ) took me to one of those patches within the city limits of Hamburg. An idyllic forest, peaceful, calm, ideal for long walks, cycling...
It also connects to a medium-sized lake that's sweet for swimming in the summer, and a few fields.
Yet if you look beyond it's beautiful trees, leaves, flowers, this place is maybe not so untouched and silent at all.
There is a lot of activity tied to this place, some euphoric, but also some very disturbing stuff.
At one time, hikers stumbled upon a bunch of discarded plastic bags. It turned out they contained human remains.
A well known explicit movie actress posted an invitation on the internet for a "fan ****"; quite a lot of people volunteered. The video shooting, which was done on an open place next to the forest, and during daylight, caused a quite scandal in Germany.
Public nudity is semi-legal in Germany, but this happening was a bit "too much", even for the Germans.
The lake is also surrounded by a nude beach, which is designated as an LGBTQIA+ "cruising" area, and a very popular one at that.
Underground raves and parties are held within the forest area; especially related to psytrance.
So there is *indeed* a lot of stuff going on at that location.
Now to our own little project:
It's a video illustrating a walk through this very forest; with some edits and twists and some surreal peculiarities.
All of this is underscored by Doomcore, Dark Ambient and Slowcore Techno sounds.
Trying to portray some of the strange sensations of this special spot.
You can watch the video as a whole, or its various parts that align to its respective tracks.
The Whole Video:
Part 1: Cosmic Anarchists - Drifting In A Timeless Void
Part 2: Αναρχία Αραχνοειδείς - The Bite Of The Spider (Chapter 5)
Part 3: Hamburg Penumbral Orchestra - The Sun
Part 4: Time Kanzler Green - Slowly Visiting Another Planet
Part 6: 1 Million Slowcore Members - Thy Will Be Done
And now we have only one thing left to say:
Bon Voyage!
