Chris
Watson was not only co-founder of legendary Sheffield art-rock band
Cabaret Voltaire, he is meanwhile also one of the most renowned
collectors of animal and nature field recordings. His album “Weather
Report” from 2003 is, according to the Guardian, one of the 1000 albums
to hear before you die. For the donaufestival he has prepared an
installation and a live-performance. As part of the former, “Sea Ice”,
he captured the melting of Antarctic ice in five collaged soundtracks,
while the latter, “A Journey South”, sees the familiar sounds of Europe
slowly dissolving into dark and beautiful soundscapes at the end of the
world.
