Take the average film soundtrack including what could be described as music and musical sounds, dialogue, atmospheres, foley, ambience, all other incidental sounds.
The average person’s perception of the story will be partly if not pretty largely due to the overall effect of the soundtrack.
Now lets take away the picture completely. We’ve probably cut the ‘average […]
“There aren’t so many people sitting there, listening and concentrating and paying attention to sound anymore…. We have to regard sound as a way of enhancing an overall experience now and acknowledge that, and take it as a positive thing and actually try and build on that as an idea.”

Okay, I’ve edited out my bitchy comments - I feel too guilty and in no position to judge… but this is still a funny video to watch. mmwoohahaha!
Thursday 17th of January 2008. Old Blue Last. 3 bands.

If listening to a Led Zeppelin record is an approximation of the experience you get when seeing them live in concert, then hearing Sawako and Richard Chartier live (just I like I did at the ICA last night) is an approximation of the experience you get when listening to them on record. Although this can […]

Eradicating my desire to form opinions will give me some kind of spiritual freedom. Ironically, that WAS my opinion over the past year or two. So comes the winter depression in which even the strongest moral boosters aren’t enough to keep that grey cloud from over my head and so my thought patterns begin to […]
It took a while but finally, Pownce makes some sense to me. It is one of those great things in life that is so simple it just can’t be justified in a basic description, you just have to do it. The more you do it, the more meaningful it becomes.
