Music for Church Cleaners Vol. I and II

Music for Church Cleaners Vol. I and II cover art

Recorded via a series of clandestine improvisations on a pipe organ within St Mark's Church in Islington, London. The ambient compositions embrace the ambient noise of the surrounding environment, with children playing outside, distant sirens, and the titular church cleaners forming a crucial part of the sonic tapestry. It serves as a hauntingly beautiful, deeply spatial exercise in acoustic resonance.
