about

MRM is delighted to present this new set of recordings from Blanc Sceol; a beautiful meditation on season and place, and the perfect soundtrack to the final vestiges of summer.

Buzz Hum: An improvised daydream, the delicious doing nothing of a lazy afternoon in a late summer meadow, busy with pollen seekers. Micro percussion of found objects, Tocante Karper synthesiser, waterphone, stones on slate and voice.

Thieves Market:An improvisation with the 'thieves market' in the Aflama district of Lisbon. The microphone captures fleeting moments and passing encounters with sellers and market goers, as we improvise with found instruments on sale. The field recording was originally made and performed with during a trip to the improvisation festival, MIA, near to Peniche, north of Lisbon. For this new iteration, a quiet voice joins the rhythms of the walking meditation, reiterating fragments and phrases seeking both chance and resonance. New layers of connection emerged on researching the history of the Fado in the Aflama area, and so the voice also hums a memory of Amalia Rodriguez' song 'Abandono', which she wrote for the prisoners of war in Peniche.

Sound Seed: A voice attempts to find a seed of sound, as gorse seeds pop in the high summer heat on Wanstead flats.


Stephen Shiell: Field recordings, Amplified objects, Waterphone, Tocante
Hannah White: Text and Voice
