about

This EP is named after a small narrow boat that was my home for a short time in November 2015. I knew I would be spending most evenings there on my own with little to do, and I wanted to use the time for something creative. Hoping to practice without disturbing other residents at the mooring, I decided to explore very quiet sounds on the saxophone whilst recording some new music. The process of recording these explorations allowed me to focus on details that would be lost or difficult to bring out without the careful use of microphones. Each day was spent looking for a new quiet sound on the instrument paired with some method of recording it. I would record a short improvisation using headphones to hear the sound from the mics, and then make adjustments to the mics if necessary. This process would repeat until I felt like I had touched upon something that was new to me. The tracks on this EP represent the first explorations of these new sounds and are presented as I heard them during performance, with no edits and no overdubs.
