about

This album was produced as part of my final exhibition at Open School East-with tracks included in my multi-media interactive installation piece 'Keep Calm...'.
Links: openschooleast.org/sam-slattery/

In 'Keep Calm...' a relatively mundane office space offers a contrasting backdrop to a small assortment of (wonky) audio-visual musings and delights. The aim of the conscious clash of the ordinary with the out of the ordinary is placed to provide the audience with an unconventional space for contemplative thought and reflection. (from exhibition blurb/write up. 'Once More With Feeling'. OSE. February 2022)

The album was largely produced using material mainly recorded between October 2021-February 2022.

Initially planned to be released as 3 eps (to be named 'Speaking', 'Listening' and 'Splistening'), the material from this album was recorded at gigs or performances that I attended, as an audience member-as well as jams, performances or workshops, where I was an active participant in a performance, or creation of music/sound.

From this starting point, it became something else quite different!

Please enjoy.
