Track 9

Anne Guthrie

"33rd Street And Rawson Ave, Queens, October 2011"

previously unreleased

This piece utilises field recordings of ambient and French horn sound made under a double-curved stone arch under the 7 train in Queens, New York. This location is unique for its focusing and spatial reflection patterns. The recordings were made using a Soundfield Ambisonic microphone, processed and mixed down to binaural. The piece is best experienced over headphones but can be heard over stereo as well.
