I really enjoyed this radio show hosted by Orson Welles, the juxtaposition of dramatic piercing strings. There are SFX throughout, the sounds of Orson picking up the objects. Also there is a hall reverb on the vocals when shifting to the characters in the drama. The sound effects do a great job of punctuating points …

A piece for 40 voices, where each singer is designated a speaker within the installation, a sculpture where you can walk inside the piece of music, and depending on your …
Exploration with TASCAM DR-40X
I recently purchased a TASCAM DR-40X Multi Track Field Recorder. I have been looking for something portable that I could take with me for field recording and record ideas, as I previously had a tape recorder which has unfortunately broken. I decided to record some sounds around my house. Dragging my fingers across a radiator, …
