about

Composed from field recordings of brutalist architecture in Ivry-sur-Seine, Paris (a companion piece to 2021's Concrete Paris)

Winner, Palma Ars Acustica Prize, 2021:

"Iain Chambers has managed to rethink brutalist architecture in the medium of sound and in the human, sociological context while maintaining a compositional logic of the highest order. Ivry-sur-Seine is both confrontation - physical, tactile, auditory, emotional confrontation - with the living environment, and great musique concrete in every moment of the piece." (Jury citation)

Commissioned by Westdeutscher Rundfunk, Cologne

I've been listening closely to the sonic journeys of Natasha Barrett for nearly 20 years... Her concepts, directions, and recordings are awe-inspiring and everlasting. So much oxygen in her mixes and stereo spaces. One of the most fearless artists of our times. So grateful to have this on HQ Vinyl. A masterwork of timeless space. Lisa Bella Donna
