Lived too long

While I was making some feedback tones with my mixing table all of a sudden a motorbike outside the building started his engine and took of. The sounds of feedback and motorbike blend well together. So I called it 'feedbike'.

This morning I recorded an early singing bird in the backyard. At first he had the stage for himself, but soon enough the world started waking up and he had to share his solo performance with other sounds. 

At some point in the recording a garbage truck passed the block, followed by seagulls with their chattering calls. Since I live in the city I remember seagulls always being part of daily acoustic life. But my memory always tricks me in thinking I am at the sea when hearing them. 

While recording the early solo songbird I started humming along (in silence) with his brisk improvisation. My dreaming away (it was 6 am) into this listening led me back to the time when I heard my grandma humming tunes while she was cleaning the house. 

I searched through my sound files, and there it was; a recording of my own humming tunes while cleaning the room. Meanwhile my brain just started popping up more sound memories from the past; clarinet tunes, the old clock ticking, the sound of horses feet passing by, the rattling of cups and plates in the kitchen...

All together they evoke this harmonic and nostalgic atmosphere in which time eventually goes by. That same feeling I used to have at grandma's house. While listening to her humming tunes I could easily dream away in the imagination of my childhood in which I always wished to be at the sea.

(* The early singing bird didn't make the final track but I like to credit him for his wonderful time traveling solo!)

Immersive Audio Podcast Episode 42 Kedar Shashidhar

In this episode of the Immersive Audio Podcast, Oliver Kadel is joined by Grammy Award-winning percussionist and composer Evelyn Glennie via Zoom from Cambridgeshire, UK.

Dame Evelyn Glennie is the first person in history to successfully create and sustain a full-time career as a solo percussionist, performing worldwide with the greatest orchestras, conductors and artists. Evelyn paved the way for orchestras globally to feature percussion concerti when she played the first percussion concerto in the history of the Proms at the Royal Albert Hall in 1992. Evelyn has commissioned over 200 new pieces for solo percussion from many of the world’s most eminent composers to vastly expand the percussion repertoire. She regularly provides masterclasses and consultations to inspire the next generation of musicians. The film ‘Touch the Sound’ and her enlightening TED speech remain key testimonies to her innovative approach to sound-creation. Leading 1000 drummers, Evelyn had the honour of a prominent role in the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games. Evelyn was awarded an OBE in 1993 and now has over 100 international awards, including the Polar Music Prize and the Companion of Honour. She was recently appointed the first female President of Help Musicians, only the third person to hold the title since Sir Edward Elgar and Sir Peter Maxwell Davies. Evelyn is currently creating The Evelyn Glennie Collection with a vision to open a centre that embodies her mission to Teach the World to Listen. She aims to ‘improve communication and social cohesion by encouraging everyone to discover new ways of listening as proven in her book ‘Listen World!’. We want to inspire, to create, to engage and to empower’.

In this episode, Evelyn talks about her unique journey and perspective as a musician and dives deep into her long-time mission - to teach people how to listen.

Immersive Audio Podcast Episode 44 Evelyn Glennie

dickhead rescue - more than...

In this episode of the Immersive Audio Podcast, Oliver Kadel and Bjørn Jacobsen are joined by electronics engineer Ben Supper from London, UK.

Ben Supper started Supperware in 2018, with the aim of making hardware and software to meet the needs of professional musicians and engineers who work with immersive audio. The challenge has been to meet their needs for high accuracy, speed, and as little impact on their budget as possible. The first product to reach general sale is a head tracker, without which there's no point making anything else. He has spent a total of twenty years working as a product engineer and occasional manager for ROLI, Focusrite, and others. Some products he's particularly proud of co-developing to include the ROLI Seaboard, and the Novation Launchpad and Mininova. Before most of this, Ben obtained a PhD in the field of spatial psychoacoustics from Surrey in 2005 and was a graduate of the Tonmeister course in 2000. It is Ben's dream to make immersive audio work commercially this time around, and not to frighten away those casual experimenters and distractible creatives on whom its commercial and artistic success will completely depend.

In this episode, we dive deep into the topic of head-tracking for audio, and Ben expertly explains the advantages of using trackers for spatial sound and the process of making them.

Supperware is giving away a free tracker to one of our lucky listeners! It’s very easy to enter - all details in the episode - submit your entry by Friday the 5th of March 2021.

This episode was produced by Oliver Kadel and Emma Rees and included music by Rhythm Scott.
