For the vinyl record fluff, Chenaux and Hlady combined field recording with musical improvisation using their own instruments (Chenaux with his guitar and Hlady with her invented instruments Case for Sound, Mixer) in sites with a “field-performance recording” approach. Once back in Avatar’s sound studio, the tracks were played through studio monitors and re-recorded with spinning microphones (Mic Spin) or played through spinning amps (Amp Spin) and re-recorded with stationary microphones. Slow and varied undulations were produced through and within the stereo-field. This recording practice experiments with the exchange between the chance of the field and the controlled environment of the studio.
fluff was made as part of The Instrument Project.
