"This composition was partly inspired by my experience with migration and how it affected me. I moved to Switzerland as an infant and back to Portugal in my early teens. The decision to focus the composition around a low-frequency drone is based on my early memories of flying in an aeroplane.
"At the same time, the high-frequency sweeps of noise illustrate the sound of crashing waves from my experience of moving to live on an island and what it meant to feel somewhat disconnected from the rest of the world.
"All of the sounds used in this composition were extracted from the original recording and edited to create the different layers, processed through various types of distortion to reflect how these life-changing events somehow continue to haunt me."
Meat preparation in Whitechapel reimagined by Jerome Faria.
Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
