Hey you yes please
from Cities and Memory - remixing the world · host Cities and Memory
"I wanted to see if I could make some music without any musical instruments: No keyboards. No guitars. No wind instruments. No drums or bass. I think I succeeded but then I'm not the final judge. I sampled from the original recording a car rolling past the market which becomes the bass line. The failing refrigerator becomes a beat. I looped other elements in the grocery store including a short conversation, an employee laugh and a brief snippet of a pop song playing in the store. I also added some recordings from my kitchen which I then cut up: tea kettle whistle, knife cutting veggies, turning off the kitchen fan, etc."What does "Hey You Yes Please" sound like? I don't really know. It's nothing serious but it brings a smile to my face every time I listen which I think is the whole point."Baltimore soundscape reimagined by Bill McKenna.
