Littoral Transmissions #64 - Rushing in a Gushing Down with Bettina Schroeder

Littoral Transmissions meander through the sonic landscape of the River Lea from Stonebridge Lock to Leamouth. Recordings from the field converge with layers of sound to create an aural impression of the navigation.

Joined by Bettina Schroeder we follow raindrops falling from steel grey skies, seeping through drip drain cracks in greasy tarmac roads, and deeper still into subterranean waterways. Down and down, running beneath city streets, submerging to re-emerge in streaming confluence.
