Harp.Tunnel by KR

This album was made during the Australian summer of 2023/24.

It features recordings of a custom-built Aeolian wind harp located within draft lines of an abandoned rail tunnel.

Raw takes were mixed to create the master sequence comprising of two parts with an interval.

This is the sound of timeless wind passing through strings in a derelict location - the refuse of colonial expansion. To honour the land that was forever altered to build this tunnel, this album creator pays respect to the First Peoples who cared for the country that these recordings were captured on. Always was and will be Aboriginal Land.
