Matt Kober - A Trip To The Store

"A Trip To The Store" is loosely inspired by visits to convenience stores, in various states of inebriation. These are the sounds that would filter into my head while I stood in line at the 7-11. The piece was recorded in a single night in 3 parts. The bass, drum machine and television were all filtered through a digital sound processor that was being "played" in turn, to create a more shifting, active soundscape than would be achieved by transforming the sounds after recording them.
