Deimantas Narkevičius, Matching the Tu-144, 2012

Sound piece
Revox, amplifier, two speakers with metal plinths Duration 10 min.
Edition 3 ( + 1 A.P.)

Presented with a reel to reel deck players which are very typical products of the 70’s. It is a sonic piece assembled out of recorded sounds in a domestic and everyday environment added with some ambience from old (analogue) sound libraries, used for mixing film soundtracks. The piece starts in a quietness, then more sound layers coming on top of each other, until it becomes noise matching a sound of Soviet supersonic jet Tu-144. After the peak of noise, the sound goes to quietness again.
