For a week during the Spring of 2015, Eric La Casa and Eamonn Sprod recorded on "waste grounds" in Paris and along the canal Ourcq. The resulting sounds were then re-arranged and collated into their present form. What's on offer then are sounds of cast-offs being manipulated alongside naturally occurring sounds of the surroundings. Edits are often quite abrupt and sometimes startling, a few times chopping off spoken words before they are fully uttered. Dogs bark, and things are smacked or dropped or rubbed. Sudden metallic hollow sounds trailing into apparent silence. Water and tumbling. These often-rapid displays of seemingly disparate sound serve to constantly retune one's attention, making for a fascinating listen.

The sounds are interesting in themselves, and their juxtaposition even more so. There are sudden blasts of ringing air and low end rumbling amid scuffle and squeak, truncated train roar, rolling glass, quiet distant city ambience and lots of thrashing about in piles of detritus. The disc is divided into 10 unnamed tracks, probably more for convenience than with any structure in mind. A listen in shuffle mode will reveal surprises in other orders. I recommend you play it on repeat.
