Autumn thieves 3:35

3:35

"The Medellin traffic sample shapes both the atmosphere and structure of the piece. In the opening, isolated fragments—like engine hums and the sharp sounds of brake noise—are presented with minimal processing, immersing the listener in the city’s raw soundscape. "Following a moment of silence, which contrasts sharply with the noise, the piece evol…

Traffic noise in Medellin 0:59

Noise, the soundtrack of our everyday life in a city. If you look at the spectogram of the recording you'll find it very boring and static, almost like a pink noise. It is mandatory to remember that noise pollution is a big issue for our wellbeing. The recording was made in Pueblito Paisa, Medellín, Colombia on 21 december 2023 at around 1 p.m. wit…

Returning 9:04

2d ago9:04

9:04

"My piece “returning” was inspired by the field recording “in the turbine hall” by Cities and Memory. As I listened to the field recording, especially the resonance of the Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall, I immediately thought that it would blend well with some of my own recent experiments with resonance to create a new sonic landscape. "The sound sourc…

Tram ride ambience 5:48

2d ago5:48

5:48

"I tried keeping the integrity of the field recording with the aim of telling a story. However, I did edit out some coughing from tram passengers as this was too distracting. To provide some consistency, I added a piano melody, and wove in some ambience through drums. I liked the talking from the passengers and kept that in, allowing the piece to e…

"The title of my piece for the Autumn Project is called “Falling”. It is based on a field recording of fore and aft engine rooms on the Suur Toll museum ship in Tallinn Estonia.

Crossing the Baltic Sea from Tallinn to Helsinki aboard a large ferry, the deep pulsing of the ferry's engines mingles with light rain on the canopy overhead, and the faint piping of the music that can be heard much more loudly throughout the interior of the ferry.

"A talented but tormented artist grapples with existential questions, consumed by his obsession with proving or disproving the existence of God.

Standing atop the TV Tower in Tallinn, with the city opening up around you, the rising sound almost feels like the inhalation and exhalation of the city itself, as it comes to life each morning through the breath of its citizens awakening.

"The noise and chaos first drew me to having a go at re-imagining this field recording, to see if I could rein it in to a beat, but still retain some of the chaos. Every single sound in this piece was sourced and sampled from the original field recording, then passed through various effects to give the resulting piece .Not sure whether it has worke…

While most mountain excursions pass off without a hitch, every year there are accidents in every mountain range, and the Dolomites is no exception.

"Rain at night in big cities hits differently. Against the backdrop of neon lights, throbbing traffic and pulsating crowds of people, the steady beat of rain adds a deep cinematic quality to a city.

The sounds of an open fire cooking food are very gradually transformed into a sweeping ambient soundscape in this composition, representing the slow speed at which a few scraps of kindling and some logs becomes a open camp fire.

Early morning English village ambience takes inspiration from Tomas Transtromer's wonderful poem "The Half-Finished Heaven", as we attempt to translate these words into a reimagination of the source sound that evokes some of the simple joy and complex melancholy of a bright summer morning: Despondency breaks off its course.

"Joseph describes himself as a painter by profession - this piece attempts to paint musical scenery around the edges of Joseph's story, recounting his own journey of migration, and wanting to place him very much at the centre, and highlight rather than draw attention away from his words. The tone of the accompanying music is a simple reflection of …
