The first First Impressions of 2025 is a northern soundscape interwoven with spoken word pieces from me and original music from Bonbon Experiment and Ocean in a Bottle. It takes its title from Lancaster Textures, a photo-poetry collab from Brad Cheek launched at Assembly Arts earlier this year.
Most field recordings were made around the city or on counter-demonstrations elsewhere. It was good to dust off the Kenobi impression for the swear warning and work in a new, shortish (30-min) format. Sense that’s the way forward! More episodes in the pipeline. As this is another soundscape show, best listened to through headphones.
