about

Benjamin Skepper’s fourth Solo album “IN THE FIELD” is a culmination of field recordings taken by the artist over the past six years of world travel.
This album is starkly different to his previous three releases. Always equipped with his sound recorder, Skepper has recorded and collated a vast library of field recordings captured during his voyages around the globe. This album is a journey into site-specific sound as the artist takes us through Japan, Turkey, Italy, Australia and France. Each sound trip features up to 15 field recordings remixed and resampled, drawing on the artist’s critical compositional ability and deep exploration of the intersections between sound and music.
