Once a Home is a story about letting go, a soundtrack to a film that does not exist.

Written by regular collaborators Antarctic Wastelands & Norvik, it is inspired by how we hold on to things that are dear and important to us - memories, objects, places, people - even after they are gone.

There are times when we must let go, but that doesn't diminish the importance of things of the past. It simply means we have to free ourselves from the burden of their weight, instead allowing ourselves to cherish the memories that remain.

In Memory Of (with Norvik)

Soundtracks for wandering souls.

Antarctic Wastelands is the ambient music moniker of Hong Kong-based producer Ben Tatlow. Focusing primarily on environmental themes of beauty, desolation and the diverse nature in between, his music has been described as “frozen ambient soundscapes that are meant to get lost within” by Rural Sounds, while Tone Harvest write that “its sights seem to be inter-dimensional in nature.”

Alongside Antarctic Wastelands, Ben produces music as @saltofthesound and @narrowskies with his wife @anitatatlow, as well as running the indie ambient label Echoes Blue Music.

"This is how the heart sounds,
Do not change the melody,
this now, you and I, here together.
Let this being with each
other be heart-sound."

All About :: The Art of Collage & Rhetorical Velocity

I am specifically interested in situations where composers anticipate and strategize future third-party remixing of their compositions as part of a larger and complex rhetorical strategy that plays out across physical and digital spaces. We find this type of thinking—the asking of “how might the text be rewritten?” and “why, where, and for whom might this text be rewritten?”—an increasingly important set of questions in a digital age characterized, for instance, by swift, easy, and deep web searching and by copying and pasting practices. 

COLLAGE ::  Artistic compositions of materials and objects pasted and/or sewn/woven over and through surfaces, often with unifying and/or juxtaposing structures, lines, colors, themes in order to create textured, alive, amplified spaces. 

SYNTHESIS (AKA Mashup): Creating Compelling Texts comprised of borrowed, reconstituted, and original material.

The art of creating such compositions.

An assemblage of diverse elements.

To paste and/or sew/weave (diverse materials) over a surface, thereby creating an artistic product.

To create such an artistic product.

Soundtracks for the imaginary movies of my life. They're not necessarily meant to be beautiful, they're meant to tell a story, like an encrypted message, but better. Your likes and comments make me happy! I never use AI in my music. sleepynoonradio@gmail.com
