LABS Community Playlist 03

Paranoia is comprised of field recordings made at Bundanon, an artistic residence set deep in the bushland on Australia’s south coast. The work and its title reflects a common sensation for novice solo bushwalkers; the sometimes comforting, sometimes chilling sensation of believing that you’re not quite alone out there. Rather than portraying the sounds of the wild as they really are, the piece gets inside the listener’s head both metaphorically and psycho-acoustically: the phenomenon of in-head acoustic imaging creates a cavernous eco-system inside the listener’s head. Paranoia features sharp cuts between real and imagined sounds, frenetic pacing, and occasional moments of tranquil beauty. 

This 60-second edition was composed for Phonurgia Nova's 2019 call-out for 60-second radio works. I thought it was a cool snippet to make available to the public. A sound art snack, if you will.

short radio preamble

It's a beautiful morning on the border between South Africa and Botswana as an unbelievably varied dawn chorus resonates in through dry riverbed. Recorded with Sennheiser DMS and Sound Devices 633. More recordings from Southern Africa at https://mindful-audio.com/southern-african-ambience/

Best with headphones!

Close your eyes, open your ears and take a journey from the frozen middle of winter, through the warming of spring and into the bright sunlight of summer in this relaxing, ambient piece.

I was trying to convey the sense of time moving slowly but also rapidly, like how it feels living the same week on repeat while in lockdown for 112 days.

Featuring ambient recordings sourced from many providers including foley captured many years ago by me and my trusty MiniDisc recorder. This is likely the only track I've produced with me whistling.

An interesting, but totally unrelated note, this track goes for 420 seconds.

I made this track using mostly my 'Tatak - Tape Harmonium' instrument which is available for free over at 
https://www.pianobook.co.uk/library/tatak-tape-harmonium/

You can watch a short video that shows how I made the glitchy drums here:

The drums are chopped up and beaten Spitfire LABS Drums.
My daughter Mia was hanging over my shoulder as I recorded the muted acoustic guitar part and I'm not sure why she wanted to say 'ow' so many times but it stayed there.

Hallo

In this piece, I portrait what would be for me the sound of a frightening and strange new world, the path arriving in a new world, the mystery around it, and then going deeper and deeper into this new place and discovering more about it. 

I hope you enjoy it.
