On the Next Soundscape, 10.25.10

On the next episode of The Soundscape, I will conduct a brief profile on sound artists who are currently making use of field recording techniques in their music/art. 

We'll listen to a variety of artist who utilize field recordings in different ways with some using their field recordings as the primary vehicles for their ideas like Solo Andata, whose new album Ritual was released by Buffalo-based label Desire Path Recordings. We'll also listen to others artists that incorporate field recordings into their musical frameworks like new 12k artist Marcus Fischer. 

Solo Andata in action
The Soundscape will also check out German sound artist Martin Backes and a work he created for Hydrophonia, a festival directed by Kim Cascone that is dedicated to raising the public awareness of ocean noise by creating sound art with underwater microphones. The third edition of Hydrophonia takes place in Barcelona on October 29-30. 

The Wire recently did an interesting post on field recording and it has loads of good links if your interested. 

Any local sound artists out there using field recording techniques? Send me your stuff.  Use the dropbox to the right of this post.

See you this Monday at 8 pm.
