Rivers Home by Kate Carr
September 25 marks World Rivers Day, and to celebrate this special moment Flaming Pines is releasing the first chapter of its 10 three inch -cd series Rivers Home.
As our environment continues to change, rivers represent some of our most vulnerable eco-systems with urban runoff, over fishing, changing rain patterns and the clearing of river banks just some of the challenges to river systems worldwide.
Rivers Home sees Marcus Fischer, Field Rotation, Broken Chip, Kate Carr and Billy Gomberg, each present an ode to a different piece of water on their own three inch CD.
“Probably the most significant field recordist of contemporary urban Britain…” - The Quietus.
Kate Carr’s practice explores the textures and technologies of field recording using movement, objects and experimental recording techniques. She creates intimate, delicate and hybrid soundworlds which emphasise interactions and shared experiences within them.
