Composers from around the world show their own sound interpretations of
Lao Tse's tao te ching. Tao project results have been compiled in this
new release of tecnonucleo. Simply put, Tao is a concept of the fundamental nature of the world, a
world that is constantly fluid, continuing and changing rather than the
static definition of a never changing reality. The Tao Te Ching by
Lao-Tzu is the best literary depiction of the concept and remains one
of the most significant spiritual works of all times. The tecnoNucleo
net label has put together a 28 track and almost 3 hours long
collection of musical interpretions of this seminal work. The tracks
include a wide range of experimental electronic artists who uses
various means including field recordings, sampling, electronic drones
and more to complete their interpretations. Like the concept itself,
there is no absolute and finite meaning to these works. The meaning is
in the sound, creating an intuitive feeling and holistic environment
rather than any intellectual definition. And in this way this anthology
succeeds. This is a album that is meant to be felt rather than
understood and in that sense, it becomes a highly spiritual experience.
