why we love this

Under a concrete ledge, jittery bleeps and drone-like hums accumulate in increments like icicles. Household sounds are rendered unfamiliar, spliced and sampled into abstraction. The familiar becomes unfamiliar in strangely calming ways.

about the record

Build Buildings is the project of Brooklyn-based Ben Tweel. He makes music using computers, instruments, and household sounds. The sounds on Ecotone are sourced from acoustic guitars, lap harp, ukulele, mbira, and clarinet, and played through the gestural iPad program Samplr.
