Cities And Memory

"The recording to me made me think beyond where I am now, how places once sounded, I wanted to take parts of it to create what a memory could be of such an event. It reminded me of the last time I spent with friends on NYE before lockdown; also some events as in the someone sending me a recording of swifts outside their flat; the first place I visited post lockdown.  "I mixed fireworks from my own recordings combined with the ones in the original recording. The ones I included were recorded in a forest next to a small village.  The fireworks echoed from all the surrounding villages and the nearby town. I also wanted to start exploring synths and ambient music again, and the aim was to create a bit of nostalgia and a sense of memory through this music genre."
