Recorded in early 2019 during an extended period of recuperation from illness, ‘Sense Routines’ explores the relationship between rhythmanalysis and the routine metrics recorded by wearable fitness trackers: the number of steps walked, heart rate, calories consumed, sleep quality etc. The album consists of two extended repetitions or variations on a routine. Each comprises a short cycle of randomly generated notes that alternately drift in and out of synchronicity. The repetitions progress from a state of sleep, through a period of prolonged activity, before shifting gradually back to repose.
As a generative work, the repetitions recorded here are simply two possible variations: the sounds can be recombined and reconfigured in any number of ways. The constituent stems are available here should any listener wish to restructure or remix the piece. (NM)
