The concept behind this album was to create a sonically pleasing work of art which represents the City of Bristol and encapsulates the diverse mix of people who call Bristol home. Each track on the album represents a different area of the city (Clifton, St. Pauls, Montpelier, Harbourside, etc.) and the audio content used is a reflection of what gives each place it's own 'sound signature'.
The audio has been made up through a combination of synthesis, sampling, found sound and studio recordings. To achieve this goal, certain objectives and targets were laid out which should contribute to the album becoming a fully rounded 'case study' of Bristol:

- Research each area and discover what are the historical, cultural and social aspects which makes the area unique. Break these down into sonically relatable pieces of information which can then be concisely translated through a musical work of art.

- Selected sounds is crucial in order to portray the correct emotions and surroundings desired for the audience to experience. As each area is very different there will be a clear transition from track to track, spanning a variety of genres and styles.

- As this album is to represent the people, as well as the city, collaboration will be key to this project. This will be achieved through working with locally based musicians, vocalists and producers in order to give a taste of the wide range of talent in Bristol.
