My first sound collage of 2020. Full of fear and worry and anxiety and sadness and laments and hope and possibility. Sound effects of explosions, along with Kirsty Hawkshaw and some in-store music from K-Mart stores in the early ’90s, and Mark Mothersbaugh’s canon, and local police scanner recordings. All in an eerie mix.

Thank you for listening.

Album art is of a railroad trestle in Durham, NC. Nicknamed the “Canopener”, the trestle has a clearance of 11 feet 8 inches, and is infamous for delivery truck drivers, and those of similar vehicles, who mistakenly think their vehicles will fit, resulting in their vehicles suffering major damage. A construction project begins here in late October of 2019 to replace the trestle with one that has a clearance of 12 foot 4.

Playlist and notes to be added shortly.
