Whale Bones and the Boundary of a Fish

Whale Bones and the Boundary of a Fish is a curated collection of site-specific recordings that capture the sonic idiosyncrasies of the Long Island landscape, transforming all the sounds produced by the three-dimensional physicality of the chosen locations into ethereal, formless soundscapes. Each song title on this release is named for the place of cultural significance on Long Island wherein it was recorded. The local history of the area acts as the foundation for the lyrical narrative that accompanies the soundscape to provide a broader context on the relationship of the sounds to the past that shaped them.
Each album purchase is accompanied by a companion book which houses a compilation of histories and photos of each location as well as anecdotes on my field recording process.

Whale Bones and the Boundary of a Fish was independently released on June 1st, 2015.
Made possible with funding from the Puffin Foundation.
