A further EP: Underheard was released in February 2023 bringing together strings, field recordings and synths. Overheard seeks to unravel human presence and nature in response to the climate crisis. Using field recordings as launch pads for the work, their place weaves from centre stage to sonic background. All the while, Violin, Double Bass, percussion and electronics finds its way through the spaces.
