wzrdryAV - West Coast Systems Vol 2 (2022)

In this installment of 'West Coast Systems', we hear sonic impressions from a handful years of exploring time zones very far to the east and west of the artists home on the coast.

Upon returning home, years of living in limbo and uncertainty dragged on. The album represents the decompression of the years prior. As with the first volume on LINE, beginnings and endings aren’t a high priority. Listeners can dip in and out of the soundscapes and decide for themselves where the journeys begin and end.

This chapter makes use of manipulated field recordings from the World Soundscape Project library at Simon Fraser University. Many of the recordings used were made using analog tape in the 1970’s. Most are intended to develop their identity over repeated listens as they are often buried deep in the mix.
