The 100 lathe-cuts sold out so I’m now offering CD and digital versions. 3 tracks on a red and white splatter compact disc in a lovely gatefold card case, with 2 inserts. 50 hand-numbered copies.
I am honored to have been selected along with 99 other sound artists worldwide to participate in the Cities and Memory project:
A CENTURY OF SOUNDS
ETHNOGRAPHIC RECORDINGS FROM THE PITT RIVERS MUSEUM’S COLLECTIONS
A Century of Sounds is a partnership between Cities and Memory and the Pitt Rivers Museum, inviting listeners to explore a century of incredible recordings from the museum’s collections in brand new ways.
One hundred recordings from all over the world, dating back as early as wax cylinder recordings from 1914, have been curated to showcase the amazing breadth of the museum’s sound collections, as well as to provide fascinating, exclusive material for artists to work with.
Many of these recordings have never been publicly available to listen to before – and they are some of the most extraordinary sounds a Cities and Memory project has ever included. Artists were invited to choose a recording that speaks to them, and create a composition based on their response to that sound, and to the resonances of history, culture, society and emotion that come from it.
The Century of Sounds collection will not only offer a unique window into global cultures past and present with rarely-heard recordings, but a new way of experiencing these sounds through the composition, sound design, music and imagination of our community of artists.
The Invaderband album is now out at the start of 2017. Blame me for not realising how long vinyl takes to press. However people who ordered the vinyl will still get the album on the original release date of 25th November, albeit on a CD (pictured) instead. The vinyl will then follow around Christmas time.
The street date for the album is now 6th Jan 2017.
