TODAY'S LISTENING: Touboura - A 5th Element (Single)

We have something rather different today, an intriguing track called A 5th Element by Touboura, who describes herself as an audiovisual magic spell maker. Combining natural sounds with electronic components and other oddities, the live recording is a terrific tapestry of texture and elements.

The video was filmed on the mystic island of Samothrace, Greece and depicts a live music performance inside Touboura's in-situ installation in a river and in the exhibition space on the island.

Samothrace is known to be an ancient sacred place where paganistic ceremonies of fertility took place, gathering people from all over ancient Greece.
