about

I was grateful to perform a live version of my latest work State of Emergency. This piece is a semi-improvised set celebrating the sonic and cultural qualities of sirens, alarms, bleeps and warning noises.

For example: The set opens with an ode to an electronic scanner device, who's warning beep tells us its batteries are running low. The original 20 second recording is unprocessed, but each additional layer was pitched down by a fraction of one. I reached 294 versions of the same sound, I wanted to get to 999 (the UK emergency telephone number) but this proved problematic, it was very time consuming and with phase and volume issues it just didn't sound 'great'

I hope you enjoy this set.

Big thanks to the SOG collective.
Special thanks to Meljoann, Geoff and Chris for keeping it unreal.
