Music for Masterplanning is about place, people and music

In 2010 the authorities of Newham and London co-produced the 3min promotional movie ‘London’s Regeneration Supernova’ to be screened at the Shanghai World Expo. It was aimed at leading Asian investors and described large areas of the Borough as an 'Arc of Opportunity’. The offer it made was to: ‘Come and take your place in the future of London’ as it is ‘moving East’.

But how do those living within the ‘Arc of Opportunity’ read this story and why does it matter? What does it mean for their lives to be part of the ‘Regeneration Supernova’ package as its effects unfold?

In 2016, Music for Masterplanning undertook to research, collect and record a compilation of soundtracks for the ‘London’s Regeneration Supernova’ movie, all produced within the boundaries of Newham’s Arc of Opportunity: Music for Masterplanning is a collection of music made by those who live, work and play in the Arc of Opportunity.
