"Trolley Lullaby" - performance @ Studium P, Vilnius, 2023-10-03. Piece was performed with modular rig, Zoom R-24 sampler, Soma Ether and some DIY electroacoustic percussion instruments made from old trolleybus composters. As always for Current b-lectric project - parts of modulations and effects in modular synth were triggered by performer's pulse, which makes things more complicated and chaotic.

All sounds of full performance are made and performed by bB- (Benas Buivydas) except the song in the beginning of the piece, which is named "Kiki troleibusas" which was originaly performed by Lithuanian female vocal ensamble, led by Feliksas Viskanta.

Field recordings were made using stereo recorder, LOM Geofon low frequency mic and DIY contact mic. As a base layer there are also parts from recordings of two full trolleybus trips, that were made earlier this year:

- trolleybus No. 7 going from train station to Pašilaičiai (trolleybus Škoda 14 TR, made in 1984), recorded in June 2023, Vilnius

- trolleybus No. 7 going from Pašilaičiai to train station (trolleybus Solaris Trollino 15 AC, made in 2004), recorded in June 2023, Vilnius
