A.T.S.E., by DOUSING

A.T.S.E.

by DOUSING

supported by

Anthony Childs Very much my kind of textural ambient exploration/storytelling. Nostalgic without being stuck in the past (the sounds of children playing often evokes a past, a present and a hopeful future). A good Instagram follow as well as you see Ben's commissioned drawings along with sneak peeks/ listens into musical works in progress.

Dakota Sillyman Just what you need for a gloomy quarantine morning.

about

A snapshot of life at the beginning of a global pandemic, this piece was started a few days prior to the "shelter in place" order and finished during social isolation. Sort of an audio time capsule for myself, I guess.

Instruments: wurlitzer piano, synthesizer, effects, and field recording.
