Real and imaginary field recordings, compiled and synthesized in the 21st Century by David Burraston at Noyzelab. The pieces on this album have been formulated over a period of around five years. The main idea for this album was to make sound pieces that would appear to be a collection or mix of ‘live’ recordings.FLD RCRDST::On Walden Snow and FLD RCRDST::FM80PcellorgNSW are both real field recordings which also mix studio recordings of Cellular Automata playing and sequencing synthesizers/effects units. CPM DRNL is a completely artificial simulation of an imaginary space, again with Cellular Automata taking on the duties of synth-playing and effects modification. Lindisfarne Refuge Hut is a complete, real field recording with nothing added, the only one on this album.Mastered by Jacques BeloeilOriginally released as Entr'acte E219 on 19th August 2017entracte.co.uk/projects/nyz-e219e220/Limited edition of 200 copies each, including a special black embossed Boomkat Edition of 50 copiesSpecial thanks:Chris Watson for taking me to the Lindisfarne Refuge Hut.John Brien at Important Records for excellent hospitality during my field trip to Walden Pond.Sarah Last at The Wired Lab for everything!A series of micro- and macrotonal generative compositions: recorded, compiled and synthesized in the 21st Century by David Burraston at Noyzelab. This is a collection of pieces designed to take you away from the world of 12-tone equal without getting bogged down in any deep, confusing theories about anything whatsoever.A pure and simple intuitive exploration of mini sound worlds using a variety of different hardware synthesizers, encompassing technologies such as modulation synthesis (FM etc.) and sample playback (ancient ROMplers). Everything on this album has been sequenced using my Cellular Automata hardware systems for generating note and control data, as well as altering the tuning of individual notes or generating complete tuning tables in some cases.Mastered by Jacques BeloeilOriginally released as Entr'acte E220 on 19th August 2017entracte.co.uk/projects/nyz-e219e220/Limited edition of 200 copies each, including a special black embossed Boomkat Edition of 50 copiesSpecial thanks:Richard D James and Warren Burt for extensive synth and microtuning natterings.Sarah Last at The Wired Lab for everything!ReviewsClaire Sawers in The Wire
