Field recordings have been a part of my compositions and also soundtracks for the podcasts and documentaries that I produce already for some years. Landscapes and cityscapes are the hum of life which surrounds us yet it is something we often do not pay attention to. It is my passion to bring it back into focus.One of these examples is Take a Step - my composition for Cities and Memory project based on the recording of footsteps in Beaux the Provence church in France.
