'This piece was recorded in the summer of 2009 on various locations in the Turkish province of Mugla. I took my Zoom h2 everywhere, recording anything that made a sound. From choirs of crickets, dogs, a traditional marriage, prayers coming out of the mosque-speakers, animals on a remote farm and a local market. I selected about twenty of these field recordings to use in the final piece, where different sounds are placed over one another or gently flow into each other. It’s like the difference in time and place has gone. These sounds are now one story.
My work is not about the art of flawless field recording at the highest bit rate available. It’s about melting sounds together in a way that’s interesting. And if the wind hits the microphone, so be it. Enjoy the trip.'

Thank you for the kind words. I was just listening to your Woda extract and really liked your sound effects. Like a cave by the ocean. Really nice work. Going to try to make time to listen to the rest of the album now. Take care and keep in touch, Jere
I wanted to thank you for adding me. I really liked From the Bridge. Always nice to hear live recordings. Braye Harbour was interesting. Liked the metalic sound. Anyways take care and keep in touch. Jere
Trespassers William (Seattle, US) are the duo of Matt Brown and Anna-Lynne Williams. "Subliminally sublime and pragmatically perfect, you would have to possess an ashtray for a heart not to feel this coursing through your soul" (DSD Music Magazine). A new EP, The Natural Order of Things, is set to be released on Gizeh Records. They will make a church performance with special guests.
Glissando (Sheffield, UK) “have the kind of atmosphere that can captivate and relax in equal measure- never before has tranquillity sounded so urgent. While track lengths of over 10 minutes may fail to hold the attention of the ADHD sufferers among us, with patience it plays like a majestic dream. And it's one you'll never want to wake up from." NME
Operations (Chris Anderson) is a Manchester based conceptual music producer and sound artist. He performs and records with an array of analog synths and effects, reel-to-reel tape and casette players, and guitars. Followers of Tim Hecker, Slowdive, Fennesz, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Stephen O'Malley, Type and 12K Records will surely nod in approval.
