about

Conducive is an experimental sound artist who uses field recordings, audio manipulation and sound collages to create interesting and immersive noise pieces, against a very subtle backdrop of minimalistic ambient music.

In this 2-song debut album, recordings of airport terminals are used as the sound foundation, which is then layered over with some very subtle textural melancholic ambience and samples of various industrial machinery - digitally processed and used as hypnotic white noise/static that builds and builds as the songs progress...

The central theme of the album is the idea of dreaming of travelling to faraway places, but being shackled and weighed down by the grinding machines/routines/pressures of everyday existence that prevent us from seeing the world, and the sounds of airport terminals are meant to aurally represent the closest you can get to leaving...whilst still being stuck in the same place.

PRESS :

''It builds and it builds and it builds...and it's just absolutely fantastic'' - Kate Bosworth, Dark Train (Radio Show)

''This is hypnotic sound art at its finest - a beautiful bridging of mesmerizing abstract noise, field recordings and dreamy ambient bliss...Excellent stuff, especially when you're high.'' - Fog Songs

''An immense image of controlled turbulence...some of the most trance-inducing Drone music I’ve heard in a while...” - Dungeon In Deep Space

''A successful experiment...with the right frame of mind and in the correct setting this release is very elegant and extremely enjoyable'' -Tenebrae Rubinstein

''It makes for a rather interesting concept as it seeks to express the difficulty of escaping the reality of our self-made world despite whatever wishes we have to do so. While there are bits of subtle ambient textures in there, they (like much of the other sounds) succumb to the noise of the world...'' - On The Fringes of Sound

''Its ambient hum is the byproduct of an enormous, bewilderingly and imposing inverted spectrum of duct mazes and spinning citadels that make up the air-circulating apparatuses of most airports.
Their howling bowels are the kind of feedback that your mind means to filter out, but Global Makeshift Wounds doesn't leave you with an ejection point or an alcove to escape this blizzard of white noise, so you are stuck with their whirling incessant, imposing and formerly benign presence - confronted with the madness of a background feature promoted to the focal point of your perception.'' - I Thought I Heard A Sound
