"I've only used the original recording, no other sounds have been added. My piece comes about from considering what it means by going underground, for instance imagining entering an underworld, a place that can be frightening and discombobulating if you haven't been there before. The underground is also a place without natural light, so the sounds become heavier and more foreboding the deeper you go. Since Embankment is on the circle line, I also considered the idea of moving continuously, but without ever getting anywhere, of travelling without moving."
Part of our project The Next Station, reimagining the sounds of the London Underground and creating the first ever tube sound map. August 2016 - for more information see www.citiesandmemory.com/thenextstation
