Carl Slater is a talented visual artist from the UK who invited me to create a soundtrack for a looping installation piece he was going to put together. The interesting challenge was making something on the music machines that sounded like a DJ mix, but transitioned from ambient to full on techno and back to ambient within about 15 minutes so it could continuously loop with the visuals Carl created. A fun challenge to tackle! We passed ideas back and forth and it all came together after a couple months. Final Audio mix was mastered by Joe Farr. Excerpt from "This Is Tommorow" Across The Atlantic Project, a thoughtful dialogue between installation and environment addresses the evolving function of the city. This is most effectively presented in Carl Slater’s ‘Echoic Candy (4-Bar)’. The work, consisting of projection and sound, is situated within Millennium Complex, previously incarnated during the 1980s and 1990s as the Warehouse nightclub. Placed in the middle of what would have been the dance floor, a projection loops a wide range of clips from stock footage to psychedelic imagery once used for the Warehouse’s own stage projections. The accompanying sound work incorporates audio recordings of parties held at the Warehouse in 1991, reworked by techno producer Paul Birken. Opposite the projection, another screen presents images exclusively drawn from video documentation of a club night however the footage is intentionally obscured by the artist. The work draws attention to the layers of time the work weaves together, paying homage to the collective experience the building contained only two decades before.
