RINGS OF TIME [Long instrumental opening] [Very deep continuous drone, contrabass, low bowed cello, slow circular bass pulse] [Instrumental – long] [Repeating low-frequency pattern, deep room resonance, subtle wooden creaks] [Distant male bass drone] Mmmmmmmmm… [Instrumental] [Contrabass pulse repeats, one new low cello layer enters] [Distant male voice – barely audible] Time. [Long instrumental] [Deep drone continues, slow resonating bass waves, bowed strings] [Background male humming] Mmmmm… Ooooooh… [Instrumental – very long] [Repetitive circular pattern, subtle changes with each repetition, low frequencies slowly layering] [Distant voice] Year… by year. [Instrumental] [Deep sustained cello, contrabass resonance, slow pulse] [Background bass voices] Mmmmmmmmm… [Long instrumental passage] [Low layers overlap like rings, warm sub bass vibrates continuously] [Distant male voice] Still… growing. [Instrumental – long] [Same circular motif, slightly fuller but never louder] [Very deep background humming] Ooooooh… Mmmmmmmmm… [Instrumental outro] [Layers disappear one by one, leaving the original deep pulse] [Distant voice – almost lost in the sound] Time. [Deep drone continues] [Fade]
