Gruenrekorder: Autumn Leaves are falling for free

  Tobias

Originally, the musical companion to “Autumn Leaves” was going to be part of the book, but for various issues this idea was shed last-minute. With the sampler now available for download from the Gruenrekorder-site, this initial disappointment has now ended up a win-win situation. For anyone who bought the book, these 27 tracks will offer deeper insight and exemplify the thoughts offered while reading. For anyone else, it is an excellent first look into the world of field recordings and adjacent genres. According to Gruenrekorder, “you can hear everything from carefully crafted spoken word pieces, through compelling electro-acoustic compositions, to the purest forms of unedited and unsequenced phonography.”, thus turning it into a perfect introduction.

Contributing artists include Yannick Dauby, Martin Clarke, Zoe Irvine as well as Gruenrekorder label heads Roland Etzin Lasse-Marc Riek. Alongside the music, the artwork is also available freely.
