about

this album includes an excerpt of the raw recording of the building site, and the vocal drone in isolation.

about:
during lockdown, i could not go on public transport to visit sites, so I made use of the acoustics in my immediate area.

throughout lockdown, the building site nearby has been in opearation. As the city sounds faded out, it became more and more audible, and more intrusive.

At an already anxious time, this wasnt a welcome thing to experience, but since I had no control over it, I felt the only thing to do is to lean into it. I listened to a particuar drone that the site was producing and decided to try and duet with it, to find a calm meeting point through sound.

The result is a kind of meditative yet tense track. I can say, making it did help.
