WRITTEN AND RECORDED
between 2014-2018 in many different places
sound collage // field recordings and noise improvisations

Constructed entirely (*) out of phone and handheld recordings of quiet moments, street performers, instrumental improvisations, and noise pollution; Salvaged Space is a document of the last few years that I've spent experimenting with different methods of arrangement and composition.
I aimed to prevent myself from overthinking the musical material, instead focusing on shaping and warping sound so that it shared the same alive/imperfect nature of the recorded soundscapes each piece is inspired by.

The captured moments that drive this record hold great value to me when remembering significant days and nights over my time at university (DMU). Including many social occasions, trips abroad, projects, performances, and mental states. I hope it can bring you some kind of respite during these interesting times.

-----------------------------------------

Thanks to everyone intentionally or unintentionally featured within the sounds on this album

Special thanks to my friends and family for supporting me over this time period, and to everyone who's helped me in the recording and production process of this music - I truly couldn't have done this without you, I'm blessed you could be a part of it.

In memory of Dave Smith (Curley)
