Trapped in the Void: No Way Home

Part of our Prison Songs project - see www.citiesandmemory.com/prisonsongs for full details.

Reimagined version of Duckin' and Dodgin' by Mark Taylor.

"This was a tricky project – so many possibilities! I experimented with numerous ideas including a full on expansion of the track involving drums, bass, organ, horn section etc!

This more ambient version is based around the simple concept of being trapped somewhere unfamiliar and not being able to get back home.

It was created in Reaktor 5 using various granular modules. No new audio has been added - everything in the piece is taken from the original recording.

The pulsing strand was created from a short clip of the strummed guitar. The two deeper threads were created by manipulating fragments of the original vocal line."
