about

the three first sounds were recorded on a small canal near antwerp, where there is a lot of boat traffic (petrol engines).
frederic atstadt and i tried to record the sub-bass of the motors of the small tankers without any other sonic activity (animals, cars, people).
we tried many different microphones in different locations at both day and night.
the sound material were afterwards cleaned and edited for the exhibition “le grand soir” by the french artist claude levéque in the venice biennale.
frederic has spatialized the sound on 6 studio 15 klinger favre speakers and a velodyne subwoofer (cut at 8hz). the bass boat crossed (with doppler effect) the french pavillion like a huge animal.
the rest of the sounds were recorded during the european sound delta trip on a rhine canal boat.
the tones are the harmonics from the motor of the little canal boat.
the first voice is a hungarian priest recorded in brussels, and the second voice is indicating the water level in the rhine canal where there is dangerous heavy traffic.
the ‘boom’ sound is a piezo mic attached to the window of the rhine canal boat.

note: it may be best to listen to this piece with headphones, or with a bit of extra volume if you have a subwoofer.
