Title:  s6t8r Artist:  Gilles Aubry Label:  Winds Measure Recordings Format:  CD Price:  € 11.90   Mp3 samples: none

Title Description:
The piece is based on recordings made inside several of the rooms of the Stralau 68 building, a former venue for experimental music in Berlin, now empty.
The sound of the trains passing periodicaly on the bridge nearby is very loud and participates strongly to the sonic identity of the building. These sounds and others from the surroundings are resonating inside the building, 'coloured' by the specific acoustics of each room.
The many cultural meanings of trains sounds are haunting the piece, from death trains during nazi Germany, to a more universal longing for travel and the paradoxal 'home' feeling induced by recursive sounds in the daily soundscape.
Additional onsite found sounds have been included in this composition. Gilles Aubry
