Recording at the Phoenix Arts Centre, Exeter.

As have a lot of places in the UK, Exeter experienced a surprising amount of snow in January. I went out for a walk after work one evening and recorded the sound of the snow crunching underfoot

Recordings of flowing water around Trews Weir along from the Exeter Quayside.

Recently I was very honoured to have one of my recordings used as the basis of one of Einzelganger's pieces. Here it is.

We live close to Exeter City's football ground - St James' Park. We can often hear the match going on from our back garden.

We've got a new local pub, and it's a great one. It's called 'The Rusty Bike', and it does great food and beer. It's also a good pub for a Sunday pint and read of the paper - the very activity I was partaking in when making this recording!

I encountered the following video on the blog of Sunn O))) member Stephen O'Malley. I'm enthusiastic but not very knowledgeable when it comes to Indian classical music, I find the drones and textures compelling. Anyway, this video caught my attention this morning and I thought I'd share it.

A binaural field recording made while walking around the entrance area of Kyoto Station, Japan on 27th March 2009.

The day of our return to Tokyo we got to Kyoto Station quite early. To kill time we went for a coffee in Caffe Veloce. My girlfriend wanted to do some last minute gift buying in one of the shopping centres in the station complex so I took the opportunity to record the hustle and bustle of the busy cafe.

This speaks for itself really. The Shinkansen trains are fantastic and I couldn't resist making some recordings from the Kyoto Station platform while we were waiting to jump on. Recorded on 27 March 2009.
