Composed by Samuel Dinley (Electronic & Produced Music)
The process used to compose ‘Solus’ used manipulations of sound recordings taken from environments that were made to adjust during the Coronavirus pandemic: using music technology to create digital instruments stemming from sounds found during times of isolation. These interweave and blend with synthesised, experimental and electronic sounds to produce a unique and stimulating electroacoustic sound world.

These 25-minute animated sound works were composed at the start of the 2020 lockdown. The six pieces aim to encourage listeners to take a pause with meditative sounds and visuals, and include sound recordings made during the first months of the lockdown period.
