about

The kalimba was tapped, bowed and plucked.

This kalimba was bought in Madrid, New Mexico and given to me by my wife. I wanted to create a sonic environment that evoked the open, dry landscape of New Mexico, a place to which I feel deeply connected.
I set a microphone inside the gourd to capture its resonant interior which became the sound of wind. The eeire creaks and whines from an abandoned ghost town came alive with the bowing of the tines. Scrapes and taps flitter across the soundscape like small animals scurring through the pale green underbrush.
