One listen. Not sure what I was going for here.
It’s pretty clear that I started off doing this one way and switched. Whilst I think that, overall, I got an idea of the song across well enough, I need to make use of my vocabulary a bit more.
Willebrant’s “Sands I (New Light)” is from Desert Songs.
I hope you enjoy.

A high hum shimmers in waves, and descends into itself. Another rises, seemingly looking to reach through a stark scenery. Almost silence for a moment. Almost; another hum appears and looks toward the uncertain and the grand.
Loops around and the sounds continue, seemingly more defined, and loop around once more, and more details come through. Imagery comes in through the bright, and the space forms and takes shape and expands as necessary. The grand is realised, and these light hums find themselves buoyed by a low, soft rumbling.
It’s still stark and seemingly arid, but the grandness of it all comes forward even more, as does the stillness. The land is still and it is rich, and bright and wonderful, and the sounds continue to carry on and reveal more of its shape, and rise to a point of intensity, lightly tap it and fade out as the song ends.
