Ian Rawes (1965-2021) was a sound recordist best known for creating the London Sound Survey, a huge collection of his recordings of the sounds of London. Before his death, Ian was recording the course of the night across the wilder places of East Anglia. He made these field recordings in remote locations across Norfolk and Suffolk, sometimes camping overnight in bird hides to capture the different nocturnal moments. Ian called the project, ‘From Dusk Till Dawn', and handed the recordings to his friend, composer/producer Iain Chambers, saying that he wanted them to bring about something new. Here, writer Kayo Chingonyi responds to the recordings, and Iain uses both elements to create a new composed sound piece, in tribute to Ian Rawes. We start at sunset: the sounds of wildfowl travel far across the flooded fields of the Ouse Washes in Cambridgeshire. Many are Bewick's and whooper swans spending the winter in the Fens before migrating back to Iceland and Siberia. https://thelondonsoundsurvey.bandcamp.com/album/from-dusk-till-dawn https://www.soundsurvey.org.uk Recordings – Ian Rawes / The London Sound Survey Words/voice – Kayo Chingonyi Composer/producer – Iain Chambers Mixing engineer – Peregrine Andrews Executive Producer – Nina Perry An Open Audio production for BBC Radio 3
