Soundscape Studies is a field that was born in Vancouver through the World Soundscape Project under the direction of R. Murray Schafer in the early seventies.

Barry Truax’s Digital Soundscapes is a collection of five pieces that integrate computer and electroacoustic music.

The disc is framed by two works (East Wind and Pacific) that refer to the environment and cultures of the Pacific region, but all of the pieces are influenced by a growing awareness of the interplay between Eastern and Western ideas, just as the world increasingly looks to the Pacific Rim as the new centre of economic activity.

An electroacoustic opera by Barry Truax.

Spirit Journies, proposes a symbolic and dreamlike journey that envelops the listener with rich and diverse sounds.
