Darren Copeland’s Rendu visible perfectly illustrates what I’m talking about. Built entirely upon environmental sounds, this is a complex, often disorienting work of considerable richness and depth. Moving from the lush, exotic environmental textures of Rendered Visible [Rendu visible] we delve into the darker, more surreal depths of Reaching for Tomorrow and the blinding intensity of the 24 minute centerpiece, Night Camera. After the first six minutes, the listener is thrust into a world in which nothing is familiar. This one’s a brilliant recording!
