The shadows of Este 3:04

5d ago3:04

3:04

"When creating this piece, I drew inspiration from the Estense Castle in Ferrara, a renowned symbol of the city's heritage. The castle's walls have witnessed a myriad of events, intrigues, love affairs and personal dramas involving the Este family. The piece reflects the dual nature of the castle which functioned both as a formidable fortress and a…

"The recording was so gorgeous and surreal that i decided to take a production only approach. Focusing on shaping and colouring the original recording rather then adding any additional elements. The aim was to create a listening experience that highlighted the beauty of natural sound and contrasted it with the mechanical and technological sounds of…

Caffe del mattino 2:56

7d ago2:56

2:56

"I wanted to include the original field recording (unmodified) in this reimagined piece with a short composition using software instruments - I tried to aim for an operatic feel seeing as the original field recording was set in Rome, Italy, whilst attempting to complement the busy nature of the original recording. I'm not sure whether I achieved th…

Echo lift 5:46

5:46

"Airports always leave me with mixed feelings - the excitement of going to new places, the strangeness of wandering in a non-place for a few hours, the nervousness from flying in a machine that might fall, etc. I usually pay attention to the people I encounter and think about their destinations, or who they might be. It's a place loaded with inform…

"I imagined that the sound of the waves could carry the sound of sea's inhabitants. The beach is then a meeting point, an ecotone between the human and non-human worlds. I used a spectral resonator to carve out notes that became the calls and cries of some imaginary whales, and I improvised with the guitar along with it." Coogee Beach reimagined by…

Tenmabashi blues (false canopy) 8:12

"The original recording had so much rich sonic qualities to it, so much that I decided to attempt to keep the original persisting throughout the reimagining as much as possible. "I wanted to obscure the boundary between the original recording and the reimaged. This blurring of which is which plays into the idea of the recorded birdcalls played thro…

The Pacific fog ballad of Ucluelet lighthouse 11:29

14d ago11:29

11:29

"I wanted to convey the physicality of fog, how it defuses light, blocks and confuses the senses and becomes a thing, a blanket over the senses. Sound travels differently and light is refracted. This is reflected in the original long form field recording with the one constant of the fog horn. "I sampled the ambience of the original track and built …

"Delay and reverb blips and bits. Background conversation with Billy Joel kicking in on the radio part way through led me to use additional samples of 'Just the way you are'. Cleaner mix overlaying the existing field recording. Some of the drum beats were pulled from the recording and then overlayed with stretched samples. Wanted to bounce the soun…

"I encoded the escalators as midi and then fed the results into my DAW (Bitwig) before adding effects etc. I like the pun of the title "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner"; appropriate both to the escalators running in the abandoned shopping centre and the fact that the squeaks sound like sneakers on the gym floor!"

Desire paths 3:58

21d ago3:58

3:58

Desire paths are small, unplanned trails created by human and animal traffic, often to create convenient shortcuts. The field recording from the Jardin de Luxembourg inspired me by all the shared pathways expressed in a short amount of time - people moving, talking, laughing, and crying, birds and other animals, bells, bicycles, and everything else…

"This composition was mostly written at 30,000 feet aboard a long-haul international flight, as I attempted to reconnect with the sounds of nature in an extremely unnatural environment. The recording is from very close to where I live, so in a sense I was also reconnecting with home with that slight edge of melancholy that sometimes comes with trav…

"For two months in 2023, I lived in Varanasi, India. Each morning I would be awakened by the sound of chanting and dogs barking - not all that different from the field recording I used in this work. As with many of my compositional ambient pieces, I use a large chord with what might be called "fuzzy" canons to envelop the Bosnian morning, the way a…
