Round

My bedroom sings in G Some sounds I found (......) Round Building Up- Not Tearing Down Stairs tuned in a spiral of perfect fifths Musick for bar items and rotating technology (Drill, Record player, Gramophone, Gloggomobil)’ D.I.Y Scratch Orchestra Organised sound (by Gloggomobil, record player, timers and found objects)

Polished vinyl record, digital relay, stereo, amplifier.

A sanded and polished vinyl disk was played through a digital delay and amplifier to create a rhythmical, looping piece. The sound evolved slowly as the needle created its own grooves in the record and imperfections developed. Due to the cyclical nature of the record, a lulling, hypnotic, subtly phasing 'noise' was created, and the addition of a digital delay turned this into a musical round, with 2 distinct lines of sound interacting and building an increasingly complex rhythmical structure.
