Carousel
Aug 29, 2022, 12:22 PM
"I was very fortunate to be selected to reimagine the sound of a Carousel slide projector, a device which once engaged the public beyond a flash of technology. “It goes backwards, forwards. It takes us to a place where we ache to go again… It lets us travel the way a child travels.” - Don Draper
"This travel is what I wished to capture in my work. To provide a space where attention might flit between a myriad of thoughts, memories, and emotions while exploring nostalgia and imagined worlds.
"I am a Sound Designer specialized in video game audio and I absolutely love developing and diving into vibrant soundscapes. My goal is for each active slide to present, for a fleeting moment, a lush, engaging, and distinct sonic environment. Additional details about the 27 slides in this composition can be found on my audio blog, AudioGungFu: https://ambientartstyles.com/obsolete-sounds-carousel/
"All Music and Foley recordings (via H4N Pro) in this work are original productions, with the exception of 6 audio samples - most notably: the Carousel audio sample; President John F. Kennedy speaking at Rice University on Sept. 12, 1962; Franklin D. Roosevelt’s June 5, 1944 Fireside Chat; and rocket thrust from an STS-131 engine."
