Sound Bath Sessions 150: Brian Ang

I recorded this track at East Coast Park near where he has lived his whole life. It is great to record in spaces that have deep meaning to the practitioner as you can hear their connection with the place in how they play. The sounds are more relaxed and familiar as they tell you their story with sound.

He wanted to do this recording near the ocean because he liked the sound of the water at the pier. The water there sounded more like the ocean instead of the beach. An infinite queue of large cargo ships formed a seemingly impenetrable barrier along the horizon. The beating of a small boat motor could be heard passing in the distance. There is no sound of place, no foundation we could reference. Everything was arbitrary, floating, even us. It began to rain so we ended our session there.
