Marinos Koutsomihalis – 3 Studies For Environmental Recordings, VCS3 And Studio Response

On June 28th and July 1st 2008, I spend some time recording a vintage VCS3 at the Centre of Contemporary Music Research' s (KSYME) facilities in Athens. On September 2010, in my place in Athens I juxtaposed some of these sounds with various environmental recordings from my library to compose 3 short pieces. On October 16th of the same year, I appropriated these works to be reproduced by 4 genelec 8050A speakers and a genelec 7060B subwoofer in the 'studio of music interaction and polyphony' of the Higher Technological Educational Institute of Crete, city of Rethymnon. What you listen to in this album is what I recorded in the aforementioned studio using a pair of spaced DPA 4060 omnidirectional microphones.
