about
This is a souvenir package of the first eight original pieces of music to emerge from the Cork City Gamelan Project: Using the whole City of Cork, Ireland as a musical instrument.
I have a fascination with the musical quality of all sounds. Any object that can make a sound can be used as a musical instrument. For the Cork City Gamelan Project, I beat and tap objects and structures around the City, record the sounds, process them using a Computer and audio editing software, often extracting and enlarging barely audible details to create new original timbres. I then use these sounds as "virtual instruments" to compose music - on their own, as well as in combination with other instruments... or in combination with other sounds which were not made by musical instruments.
Seven of these tracks have been previously released as free AAC downloads at www.corkcitygamelan.ie.
