No music without space. A saying like that may travel in many different directions. To physics for example, since sound needs matter to exist. Sountracks such as Interstellar (Hans Zimmer) and Arrival (Johan Johansson) accompany great films. And those who have seen Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, will never listen to An der schönen Blauen Donau the same way again. But since a vacuum has no matter, it does not have sound either.
The small space of this newsletter is packed with attention to sound and its surroundings. Take Janacek, who foudn himself into more countries than he visited. Take Stijn Demeulenaere who invites us on a sound journey to ourselves. On the fifth of September at 7pm, make sure to take a seat for Sensenta by Harrold Roeland. What he will do is such a well-kept secret, that even he himself doesn’t know yet.What he does know, however, is that his live-made follow-up story moores sound, space and ambience. Coming soon, in your own, comfortable space. See you in four weeks!
