Urban Process


Urban Process is a project that explores the compositional aesthetics of sounds from the urban space. Using field recordings of urban environments, and drawing ideas from Musique Concrete, as well as using contemporary approaches to sound design and music production, such as generative music, granular synthesis and microsound, we have compiled a collection of tracks that explore urban noise in a musical context. Often the pedestrian, commuter, or urban flaneur will choose to block out the sounds of their surrounding environment via solipsistic headphone listening. We believe that all sounds have the capacity to be heard and invite you to not only download the tracks for your own listening, but also to offer your own content to the project, either via downloading the sounds we used for your own composition, or downloading loops we have made, or contributing sounds from your own city for others to use, via the DropBox on this page. Thanks for listening and taking part.
