about

'Ocean Sighs' is a selection of 'ambient seascapes' which incorporate tonal drone textures and harmonic vocalisations, set against a continuous ebb and flow of treated ocean sounds. The two elements were equally considered in the construction of the tracks and are intended to be complimentary.

Binaural recordings (*) feature throughout the album. They were incorporated to give an enhanced spatial element. The binaural recordings were recorded by myself locally in North east Yorkshire, UK. I also utilised other sea recordings from 'Freesound.org', as my collection of recordings was quite limited, in terms of the types of sea
sounds that I had. I wanted to work with a greater variety of sea sounds - distant / rumbling / stormy etc.

Some other binaural material (wind and storms) was also used, albeit very subtley. I've used environmental recordings sporadically before in my work, but this time they were used throughout the whole album as an integral part of the album.

Due to the usage of the binaural recordings and the spatial processing employed, Headphone listening is recommended.
(* in-the-ear microphone recordings that capture spatial elements very well - in my view ! )

I wrote a blog post to accompany this release, which goes into more technical details and attributes the Freesound recordings used. Please see here:

Nocturnes II
by Max Corbacho

supported by 13 fans who also own “Ocean Sighs”

No matter if entering enthrallingly overwhelming skylines, nebulously extraterrestrial spheres, mysteriously labyrinthine inner zones, spectacularly subaqueous depths or majestically monumental architectural masterpieces, Max Corbacho always delivers the very best of his virtuosic soundcarving, a rewardingly abundant momentum of tremendously sophisticated wizardry in sculpting powerfully transporting opuses. With gem like 70-minute "Nocturnes II", but also with "Source Of Present", "Nocturnes" and most especially with recently released "Horizon Matrix" (out since November 30th, 2018), Max Corbacho is triumphantly chasing quintessential milestones such as "Ars Lucis" and "The Ocean Inside". Once again, bravo, Maestro!!! Richard Gürtler
