  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Tripataka's second album is a double compact disc, featuring guest artists Daryl Pratt and Amos Roach.

    “Gliese 667C” is a journey through different territories – not just created by the visitations of the musicians as they consider such traditions as Bali, West Africa, India and Morocco – but musical territories that are innovative and beyond geographic border. These are fresh and new, and the musicians’ excitement is palpable as the listener accompanies their pathfinding discoveries. Like its cosmic namesake, this album forges into a place strangely new yet tantilisingly habitable.

about

This composition is named after the Aboriginal reserve existing from 1863 to 1924 located near Healesville, Victoria. Established under the initiative of Simon Wonga and William Barak, it began as a haven for a group of Wurundjeri people who were displaced from their traditional lands by colonial occupation. What began as a successful enterprise in hops, food and Aboriginal craft, deteriorated as a result of the jealous and racist machinations of the colonial neighbours and government bodies – namely the Aboriginal Protection Board.
My composition’s technical foundation is tiling – the mathematical principle behind the two-dimensional patterns featured in art (such as the decorative tessellation of walls and windows from the ancient Chinese and Sumerians), and nature (such as the design of bee honeycomb). M.C. Escher famously used tiling in his visual art also.

This composition features a rhythmic tiling pattern that sees a 105-beat cycle tiled by 10 simultaneous patterns – each of which that draws from South Indian geometric yati patterns. The ten lines that tile the cycle represent the ten letters of Wurundjeri. They also correspond to the tune title Coranderrk. None of the ten lines overlap, which means they are arranged to tessellate the 105-beat cycle. The drums perform this pattern at once, whilst the bass trombone and bass guitar work to educe different patterns from the cycle as the composition evolves.

Guest artist: Amos Roach (didgeridoo)
