No Artist - Environments

I love these records so much. Even if I’m working on a song of my own, or a composition for hire, I’ll leave these playing while I work until I reach the mixing stage. I like to just leave those records playing in the background all the time. On Orcas [Island], I used to have so much fun listening to the one with crashing waves. Orcas is by the ocean, it’s an island, but it doesn’t have really big crashing waves. I loved the novelty of listening to something in that environment that wasn’t of that environment. I like the quirkiness of that. The recording of the birds [‘Optimum Aviary’ from Environments I] is probably my favourite. I’m very influenced by birdsongs, and constantly wanting them to be fed into my subconscious.
