stopGOstop is a podcast that explores the idea that sound recordings can act as sediment — an accumulation of recorded cultural material — distributed via rss feed, and listened to on headphones. Each episode is a new sonic layer, incorporating field recordings, plunderphonics, and electroacoustic sound, all composed together in one episode or, alternately, presented individually as striations.
The podcast has evolved over its existence, started as a field recording podcast in 2012 the first 19 episodes feature binaural and stereo recordings from everyday life. After, it shifted between field recordings, experimental narratives, new compositions, and sound collages.

173: to make sure
Looking inward — the waves moving, the mind murmurs in melody, this morning there was a glimmer, then at noon a glow; as I move, I hear episode 173, a new composition for a small ensemble.
Customer Reviews
good show
“Field Recordings” is a bit of a misnomer, but some good industrial-bordering-on-avant compositions.
