Distant songs

from Cities and Memory - remixing the world · host Cities and Memory

"“Distant Songs” was inspired by the field recording “Archive of a Wander through the Museum of Automata, Lyon” by Florent Picollet. I began my process by eq’ing and editing the field recording into three overlapping sections. The new track was stretched using Paul’s Extreme Sound Stretch and then processed and performed in Ableton. Lastly, Casio tones were added.
