Redruth Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 "Tesco is an album made entirely from sounds recorded from the 10 best-selling items in a Tesco supermarket (according to 2010 survey by The Grocer magazine), with track titles including ‘Andrex, ‘Dairy Milk’ and ‘Lucozade’. As the press release for the album explains, “The guiding creative principle of the Wishmountain project – that each track is made exclusively from eight sounds recorded from a single object – originally stemmed from the technical limitations of Herbert’s recording equipment. Using an eight-output Casio FZ1 sampler, Herbert challenged himself to build tracks using sounds from ordinary items found in the home.” http://datatransmiss.../ViewNews/8690/ http://www.matthewherbert.com/ http://www.accidentalrecords.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobDobalina Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I generally like Herbert but his continued rehashing of "a whole album made only from sounds of _____" concept is growing tiresome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
