about

it may feel like end of human days, but slow down to consider the sounds around you. the flow of the sea, the scrape of metal across the road, the sound of your microwave humming. the meditative is everywhere. and even in the city of Chernobyl, the birds continue to sing.

The tracks on this E.P. were recorded between 2016 and 2019 from a variety of found sound, vocals and instruments, both digital and analogue.
