Delicate Feedbacks

Using field recordings, modular synths, a DIY Lyra-8, and guitar drones, Carolyn Snow aka Tangent Universes creates immersive compositions from her Mid-Atlantic context.

"Delicate Feedbacks" tells the story of a 100 year old dam, its removal, and a river's return. The track was inspired by Carolyn spending time in and near the rivers and creeks of Patapsco Valley, MD. She documented her time by creating field recordings while studying the local eels and other aquatic animals. The natural sounds she captured were interpreted through modular synthesizers, creating a textured and ambient abstraction of her experience in the valley.
