Thames Beat is an innovative music project that follows the River Thames from its source in Gloucestershire to the heart of London, capturing the unique sounds of each location along the way. From the tranquil upper reaches in Surrey to the bustling urban soundscape of central London, the project will weave these field recordings into an original electronic music composition. The final piece will be a multi-movement work that tells the story of the river's journey, highlighting the contrast between nature and city life. This project is unique as it combines environmental sound art with electronic music production, creating a sonic postcard of London and Surrey that is both artistic and deeply rooted in place. The music will be accompanied by a short film showcasing the recording process and the landscapes that inspired it, making it a perfect portfolio piece for musicians, filmmakers, and sound designers.
