elizabeth Veldon - Three Rituals For A Child And A Dog

Review by Paul van Zyl

Elizabeth Veldon's album "Three Rituals For A Child And A Dog" is a hauntingly beautiful collection of ambient soundscapes that transport the listener to a world of wonder and mystery. The three tracks on the album are each named after a different ritual, and they evoke a sense of ritualistic ceremony with their slow, meditative pace and otherworldly sounds.

The first track, "The Ritual Of The Child," is a gentle, lullaby-like piece that creates a sense of calm and safety. The second track, "The Ritual Of The Dog," is darker and more foreboding, with deep, rumbling tones and eerie, high-pitched whistles that sound like a dog's howl. The final track, "The Ritual Of The Offering," is the most experimental of the three, with a cacophony of strange, otherworldly sounds that seem to come from deep within the earth.

Elizabeth Veldon's use of sound is masterful, and her ability to create such evocative and immersive soundscapes is truly impressive.
