Water Song
December 31st, 2007 by Russell DaviesSteve has raved about Chris Watson before. Maybe a couple of time actually. So I suspect he’s going to be a speechification staple, his recordings are just brilliant. And the way he layers them together, edits and moulds them. I know it’s a cliche, but it makes you listen to the world properly again. What’s extra special about this programme is also hearing from Mr Watson himself, explaining what excites him about this stuff. MP3 here.
I was just thinking how I’d love to hear this sensibility applied to the city when I noticed on Mr Watson’s website, that he’s leading a ‘Field Recording in the City’ workshop at the Museum of Garden History on January 28th. Must go to that.
