You'll never hear the world in quite the same way after experiencing Chris Watson's field recordings. Whether an eerie whistle of wind blowing through the cracks of an Icelandic glacier or the brittle snap of vultures cracking the ribs of a zebra's carcass in Kenya, Watson's recordings of the natural world combine exquisitely intimate fidelity with a musician's ear. For this intimate presentation, the freelance BBC sound engineer mixes live audio portraits of three vastly different ecosystems: a stormy Scandinavian coastline, a day in the life of a Kalahari oasis, and the Galapagos Islands. Watson shares the bill with Florian Hecker, who approaches psychoacoustics artificially.
