Muster – Find a City to Live In
I’m really pleased to say that the album I recorded with guitarist James O’Sullivan as improv duo Muster is out today. Find a City to Live In is on Invisible City records for streaming, download, or as a limited run cassette.
To make this album we swapped solo recordings and made live responses to each other’s work. James listened to each track multiple times, then recorded a live response, I listened to the track once and made a live score to work from when I made a recording.
The resulting tracks were mixed in London and Brighton, and mastered by Mark Beazley. The beautiful cover art is by Alexandra Hobson.
Field recordings of fridges
About two years ago my friend and fellow sound artist Henry Collins (ex Shitmat) got in touch about a project he was working on with KIKS/Gfr collecting field recordings of fridges. As there have been plenty of times late at night when I’ve sat in my kitchen listening to the appliances singing to me, I made a recording and sent it off.
It took a couple of years but the album is out and comes as a download with a lovely CAD print of a fridge’s cooling system. Its great to be in the illustrious company of Graham Dunning, Leslie Deere, and Simon Whetham. Thanks to Henry, and Ben at KIKS/Gfr, who is donating the profits to a foodbank in Nottingham.
