Robert Sanderson

by Robert Sanderson

My name is Robert Sanderson, and I'm an artist living and working in Norwich, England. A lot of the sounds on this site are samples taken from field recordings I've collected over the years, and from old 78rpm records. The instruments are mostly junk instruments - a spanish guitar with a warped neck rescued from a skip, a bronchitic button accordian from a junk shop in Newcastle, a tenor banjo from a car-boot sale, a temperamental keyboard from a charity store...I quite like the idea of these instruments having something of an after-life.For more information, visit my website, or e-mail [email protected].
