Tommy Moore - Dust and Breath

All sounds in this composition are based on a field recording made in Washington Square Park near New York University in April of 2012.  The composition is structured around a 3-minute walk through the park, superimposing various time-stretched, time-compressed, or other processed iterations of the original field recording.

Washington Square: Stretched

During the storm, a few hours before landfall. This was recorded at my bedroom window in Astoria, Queens.

"Chinatown" is derived from field recordings captured one evening in Chinatown, Manhattan at the intersection of Baxter and Canal St. The field recording has been edited and processed to create a dark and uncanny soundscape.

Chinatown

"Piquante" is derived from field recordings captured during the filming of the documentary "Sushi and Sauce Piquante" by Pat Mire.  It features a general ambience of a cajun cookout captured in the heart of Cajun country, Louisiana.  The recordings have been time-stretched and layered with field recordings of a traditional cajun band.
