A hauntological piece inspired particularly by 'Ghosts of My Life: Writings on Depression, Hauntology and Lost Futures' by Mark Fisher

Good Grief - Charlie Ridler

Constructed entirely from two recordings of my own voice (one spoken, one sung). Processed using a combination of microsound, binaural panning and polymetric looping techniques.

This piece uses headphone surround sound - the spatialized elements are at their strongest when listened to through over-ear headphones and in the dark.

Text taken from Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness:

‘It had become so pitch dark that we listeners could hardly see one another. For a long time already he, sitting apart, had been no more to us than a voice. There was not a word from anybody. The others might have been asleep, but I was awake. I listened, I listened on the watch for the sentence, for the word that would give me the clue to the faint uneasiness inspired by this narrative that seemed to shape itself without human lips in the heavy night-air of the river.’
