EP#25: Using Field Recordings in your Music
Much of the time, music recording and production takes place inside the studio, which we’ve covered a lot on the podcast already. But inside today’s episode, Isobel shares why field recordings - recordings made outside the studio - became so important to her own production style and how you can get started with these more experimental recording techniques to transform your sound in multiple, exciting ways.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS{00:00} Intro {04:33} What is field recording?{09:53} Women pioneers of field recording{17:18} How and why I use field recordings in my music{20:19} How to get started with field recording{26:51} Episode summary & next week’s teaserDownload my FREE PDF Guide, 10 FREE Tools to Start Recording your Music, Right Now HERE >>REFERENCESAmerica Over the Water by Shirley Collins >>The World Soundscape Project >>Environments, Irv Teibel >>Chris Watson >>My Words Trace A Path: encounters with place through voice, performance and field recording, PhD Thesis, Isobel Anderson >>Kit’s Beach Soundwalk, Hildergard Westerkamp >>Thought Experiments in F# Minor, Janet Cardiff >>Know Your Heart, Isobel Anderson >>CHALK / FLINT, Isobel Anderson >>Cold Water Songs, Isobel Anderson >>Virtual Barber Shop >>In The Field, Angus Carlyle & Cathy Lane >>EQUIPMENT MENTIONEDZoom H4n Pro Handy Recorder >>Rycote Portable Recorder audio Kit Zoom H4N >>Jez Riley French Contact Microphone >> Ready to level up your music making with the powerful art of field recording?
