Water! Phones! Waterphones!

I've been here in the studio putting some finishing touches on the musical score to the Space Cadet animated feature film!
I wanted to record some eerie sounds on this scene where Celeste (the space cadet), lands on the mysterious "Puzzle Planet" and discovers some flying jellyfish creatures there.
I rented a waterphone to create some of the sounds in the scene. A waterphone consists of several metal tines welded onto a resonator disc. You can play it by bowing the tines with a regular string bow. You can add water to the inside of the resonator and swirl it around while you play it. This creates some very mysterious tones that have a bit of doppler/vibrato effect!
Anyhow, the score is getting closer to completion every day!
More updates to come! Thank you for your support!
