Nebulate - O Fortuna (Bootleg/Free DL)

Sheung Ning began learning about sound baths a few years ago and regularly performs sound baths. A self- proclaimed introvert, she finds that sound baths allow her to express herself creatively and makes her more outgoing. These recordings were recorded one evening in Lai Chi Kok. In the recordings, you can hear the sounds of late evening in the building as the shopkeepers close their roll down gates, Jangle keys, and leave footsteps that disappear in the distance. It is a great description of place and location.

I felt this recording was grounding and very comfortable. The sounds of shop closings and doors interrupt occasionally but describe the time and place of the recording and she plays through them anyway. She ends with a very quiet tone and silence before she plays her smaller bowls in a melodic fashion to bring you back from sleep.

Sound Bath 057- Sheung Ning

At around 12:00 AM on October 7, 1998 in Laramie, Wyoming, Matt Shepard was tied up and brutally beaten because he was gay. 18 hours later a passing bicyclist found his body and called 911. He died 5 days later in Poudre Valley Hospital in Colorado.

Made in the same location, time, and day, this 18-hour binaural recording commemorates the day when Matt was found as he would have heard it.

Recorded with a DIY binaural head with 3Dio Silicone ears and DPA 4061 microphones. Audio recorded with a vintage Sony TC-D5 and Sony EF Type 1 Cassettes. For an immersive experience, use headphones. For background white noise, play on speakers with very low volume.

Level settings: The soundscape was very silent. Our general recommendation for your level settings is to set the level so that the tape noise is bearable, then lower it one or two more clicks. 

Special thanks to: Michele Josue, Matthew Shepard Foundation, Laramie PD, and the landowner for making this project possible.

Recorded with a DIY binaural head with 3Dio Silicone ears and DPA 4061 microphones. Audio recorded with a vintage Sony TC-D5 and Sony EF Type 1 Cassettes. Comfortable, circumaural headphones are highly recommended as the audio is very quiet but also because a correct binaural image requires playback through headphones.

Level settings: The soundscape was very silent. Our general recommendation for your level settings is to set the level so that the tape noise is bearable, then lower it one or two more clicks.

Social Tapes- Matthew Shepard Tape 03

Lisa takes us through her neighborhood behind the Carrefour complex on Quyang Lu. Her kindergarten, elementary, and middle school are in the city block she grew up in so the better part of her childhood and adolescent life took place here. Since her family moved out of the area, she has rarely come back to visit, save to see a few friends that still live in the area. The neighborhood is part of the school’s 学区房 meaning that any resident living in the immediate area can attend these schools. This usually means the rents are higher especially if the schools are good like the ones here. Her memories reveal the places where she used to play with her friends and teachers, as well as some small, but necessary, changes such as the enclosed public trash can area. The biggest change from her story are the local stores. In 2017, all the small local stores along the streets were closed and some even demolished. Storefronts were bricked up and integrated into the residential building they shared or just left abandoned. While this alleviated a lot of traffic and people congestion throughout the city, the small and unique local businesses that defined every street were now gone, changing the identity and the dynamic of the community. 

I hadn’t visited the area since I made the recording in 2013, but when I went back in April (2018) with Shen Yi to take the photos for this book, the commercial areas had all been closed. As you can see on the cover, some stores hung signages out to say that they were still open behind the wall. I remembered all the small stores lining the pedestrian street beside Carrefour and along Miyun Lu. You can hear how noisy and lively things were. Now they are just invisible memories captured with the sound and story of this recording.

Lisa带着我们穿过曲阳路家乐福后面的小区。她的幼儿园、小学和初中都在她长大的这块区域，所以可以说她童年的美好记忆都和这里有关。自从她和家人搬走之后，她很少再回来这里。

这个小区属于学校的学区房，也就是说，住在这一区的小孩可以直接在这些学校上学。这也意味着这一区房子的价钱会更高，尤其是还不错的学校学区房更贵，这几个学校就是这样。在她的记忆里，她以前经常和朋友还有老师在这里玩耍，后来这里发生了一些改变，比如新建了封闭的公共垃圾堆区域，改变不大，但十分必要。她记忆里最大的改变是这些当地的商店。2017年，上海的街道样貌经历了一些巨大的变化。沿街的小的当地商店都关门了，有的甚至被拆除了。店面都用砖围砌了起来，和共用或者废弃的民用住宅合成了一体。尽管这样做减轻了城市的交通和人口拥挤问题，这些曾经为每条街道增添色彩的特色小商店都消失了，改变了社区的本身的面貌和生气。

2013年在这里完成实地录音之后，我就再也没有回来过。2018年4月，我和沈祎一起再次到访，为这个录音专辑拍摄照片的时候，这些商店都已经关门了。你可以从专辑封面看到，一些商店挂着标示，告诉人们在这墙壁后，他们仍然在正常营业。我仍然记得家乐福旁边人行道沿路还有密云路沿街的这些小商店。你可以听到曾经这里是多么嘈杂和热闹。而现在只剩下这录音收录的声音和故事背后的一些隐形的记忆。

April 17, 2014 / Lama Farm / 43.096398, 1.075710 / Du mauvais au bon voisinage… / Par delà la petite rivière (le Lens), franchir le pont de bois pour allons trouver un peu de chaleur humaine à la « Ferme des Lamas » / Se refusant à rencontrer nos micros, laissons ces andins animaux si fiers à leurs grands espaces (et leur suffisance) pour accompagner la sympathique fermière pour une visite guidée de la petite exploitation familiale au rythme et à la mélodie germanique de sa voix / Ici, vous vous laisserez sans doute séduire par la diversité de la ménagerie bucolique… / Mais un peu plus loin, ou plutôt, un peu plus près, écoutez… / Là, au creux de l’écoute! / Ici, un peu plus près… / Encore… / Et découvrez le petit animal qui m’accompagne, collé contre-moi… / et qui respire doucement là, tout près… //

Bad to good neighborhoods… / Beyond the small river (the Lens), we cross a wooden bridge to find a bit of human warmth at the "Llama Farm" / Refusing to approach our microphones, we leave the proud, Andean animals to their wide-open spaces (and alone with their arrogance) to follow the friendly female farmer for a guided tour of the small family farm, listening to the Germanic rhythm and melody of her voice / You can't help but to fall in love with the diversity of her bucolic menagerie... / But listen a little bit more, or rather, a bit closer... / There, in the lull of your listening! / Here, a bit closer... /Again, and discover the small animal that accompanies me, right next to me... /and softly breathes close by... //

Lamas Farm

Zijin Lu was the 12th recording of Growing Up With Shanghai and was recorded almost 10 years ago. It was the first walk that Shen Yi took photos for and when I finally saw them developed I was so happy I finally found the look I wanted for the rest of the project. I remember it was a cold day on the street, and entering the narrow Nongtang, I felt it was freezing in the shadows. Celia takes us around her neighborhood just blocks away from the Bund around the area she used to live with her Grandma. In 2010, the Bund tunnel was about to open just in time for the World Expo, and the Shanghai Natural History Museum was in its old location under the shadow of the Yan‘an Lu Elevated road. She walks along her daily route to school and tells us stories of how it was growing up here with all her cousins and friends. We get lost a little when looking for the park that she used to learn Wushu with her friends after school. It’s a great story in a great location. I hope you enjoy it.
紫金路是“与沪成长”的第12段录音，录制于将近10年前。这次漫步是沈祎拍摄的第一次漫步，当我看到照片洗出来后十分高兴，感觉终于找到这个项目今后想要的效果了。我还记得那天街上很冷，走进狭窄的弄堂里，太阳照不到的地方冻得刺骨。Celia带我们参观了她以前和奶奶一起住的地方，离外滩仅仅相隔了几个街区。在2010年的当时，外滩隧道为迎接世博会即将通车，上海自然历史博物馆也还位于延安路高架下的旧址。她沿着曾经每天的上学路为我们讲述了和自己的兄弟姐妹以及朋友们一起成长的故事。在寻找她当时放学后和小伙伴一起练武术的公园时我们还迷路了。繁华的地段，精彩的故事。希望你会喜欢。
