Captured over a period of 24 hours in Amherst, Massachusetts (coincidentally, a town adjacent to mine, and that I drive through multiple times per week), Brian House captured infrasound via custom built macrophones, speeding the recordings up 60 times to render them into the range of human hearing. The outcome is an expansive, at times terrifying, pair of compositions that are as sonically enjoyable as they are scientifically fascinating.<\/p>\n<p>With the sides split between day and night, the differences are audible dependent on the time of recording. The day side (6AM through 6PM) leads in with silence that is soon blended with distant, heavy rumbling and other low frequency, submerged like sounds. Slow passages of sound whiff over like clouds, offsetting unconventional echoing sounds. Through the 24 minutes of the piece, House captures higher frequency tones, indistinct rattling, and guttural textures. The overall structure is a consistent one, however, even with all of these disparate layers mixed with a strong compositional structure.<\/p>\n<p>The night side is comparably more active in comparison. With a ghostly opening, sputtering noise and buoyant tones enter the mix. The piece is busier, but also more unsettling when compared to metaphorical light of day. The moments during the day that drifted more towards silence are filled with more aggressive outbursts and shrill segments that sound like nothing we would perceive as naturally occurring.
