MFA (Research) candidate Eamon Sprod’s sound project TARAB has recently had new works published: 

APOPHENIA
Released on his own micro-label SONICRUBBISH

In making APOPHENIA I borrowed sounds made by people and some by things; some sounds I initiated myself. All sounds collected 2012–19. Arranged and de-arranged 2016–19. Elements of this piece first appeared on the Aposiopèse compilation VIII. Sounds were then borrowed, discarded and re-arranged into a mix for the Ears Have Ears radio program (RIP). Further additions and subtractions were made, and over time it all de-arranged into the form it is in here. Thank you: air conditioning units, bicarb soda, malfunctioning white goods, alleyways, constructions sites, trains, escalators, plastic bags, hollow vessels, floor boards and empty rooms.

41 Containers was arranged specifically for NY based publishing house Erstwhile’s Amplify: Quarantine Festival.

All sounds were sourced and recorded within my home during lock-down March–April 2020.
