about

This album includes the original vocal loop which I sent Conny, which she asked me to use as a starting point for the sited improvisation.

about:
unable to go on any field trips under lockdown, I made use of sites within walking distance of my home.

the audio was recorded in a particulalry resonant tunnel under a railway bridge, and integrates another street recording, a drone sung to mimic the 'wail-like' sounds of a building site.

This version has is the raw acoustics of the site, hear a version with treatments here: ellensouthern.bandcamp.com/track/site-singing-in-lockdown-railway-tunnel

this track featured in a Dark Alchemy live stream by Eye Spirit (Conny Prantera aka The SeeR) youtu.be/kQLy1oKSbcE , and is the first step towards making a collaborative performance, when its possible again.
