*2024 stock* Field Studies Vol.6 is a work on the swamp of Padule di Fucecchio, the largest inland wet area of Italy. Invited by Nub Project Space to work on its soundscape, I visited Padule four times between October and June, recording the sounds I encountered, mainly birds, insects and reeds.
Despite being an incredibly silent and quiet place, Padule can also be harsh and inhospitable, the tracks resulting from the elaboration of the field recordings with tape loops and a Doepfer A-100 modular synthesizer try to reflect this peculiarity.
Produced by Nub Project Space with the contribution of Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio Pistoia e Pescia.
Recorded, edited and mixed by Glauco Salvo
Mastered by Giuseppe Ielasi
Graphic project by Giulia Polenta
