Venetian boat crane reimagined by Andy Billington.
"I wanted to work from a visual score so took all of the parts of the original recording and colour coded anything that sounded like drums or percussion.
"Next I took any ambient voice sounds or water sounds and positioned these on top of the drum samples (now all layered). Slowly a sort of smeared jazz construction was built out. Adding DAW double bass and Vibraphone completed the structure. But it was still not quite right.
"Next I reduced and removed many layers of samples and added the melody but played on DAW jazz drumkit. Finally more blurring and pitching down and the track was completed with some freeform distortion via a heavily processed organ improvised over the top). Virtual Venice was completed."
