Utilizing Processed Trumpet Groovebox And Laptop As Source Material. Jules Verne Wrote "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea" In 1870. Fifty Seven Years Later The Martin Company Manufactured A Trumpet. Using Cutting Edge Industrial Age Technology. Eighty Years Later That Trumpet Is Being Brought To Bear In A Campaign To Use Brass In A Harsh Noise Context. Using Tools That Were Marketed To Pre-Depression Era Musicians I Found A Link To Verne's Nautilus. The Springs Valves And Pipe Of A Trumpet Make Quite A Statement When Amplified By Means Of Contact Microphones And Condenser Microphones Small Enough To Fit In The Tubing Of The Horn. Sounds Of Rushing Hot Air Clanking Metal And Vibrating Springs Are All Revealed To Have An Important Say In The Sound Of The Instrument.
As One Might Imagine The Sounds Might Be Aboard A Machine Age Vessel. Harsh Metallic And Piercing. A Cross Between An Engine Room And An Auto Shop. Perhaps An Engine Room With A Reflective Side....Perhaps. It Is This Challenge Of Bringing These Tools To A Harsh Noise Context That I Accept. Http //phogmasheeen.Com
