Floating Points - Reflections : Mojave Desert (Vinyl)
The project started simply because Floating Points were on tour, had just finished FYF fest in LA, and had a week before picking up the rest of the tour in phoenix. on the way they stopped for a week near Joshua Tree National Park. the idea was to go somewhere fairly remote and setup to rehearse. it was peak summer, so they setup outside and would be playing throughout the day and night.
Whilst they were out playing and exploring the area around them - the sound reflecting from the rocks, the sound of the wind between them, complete stillness at night and packs of roaming coyotes in the distance, It became apparent that they could use this as its own unique recording environment.
Anna in the bands' crew createed the projections for their live show, but is predominantly a film maker. Calls to friends in LA and borrowed some film/sound gear and recorded some of the new music that came out of the rehearsals.
Through the process of making this record, they decided to start a series of musical & video explorations in interesting locations, where the music is a function of its surroundings. This first experiment only marks the beginning in this idea, and am currently seeking new interesting acoustic environments to explore.
