about

My voice practice owes a lot to the Tuvan and Mongolian throat singing traditions which have a great deal of mimesis and mimicry interwoven through them. I liked the idea of attempting a ‘straight’ cover of one of Dan’s nuanced, timbral focused pieces and doing so with a different instrument as an exercise in mimicry and in pushing technique and form to their limits. In attempting to sound like Dan’s trumpet playing as much as possible I found some new spaces in my voice and while I still feel like this track sounds like me singing (I don’t think anyone would mistake it for Dan’s original!) this process of attempted mimicry really highlights the subtle variations of our own instruments, foregrounding their difference as the sounds push themselves as close to each other as they can go. I love Dan’s album and its commitment to really pushing a restrictive form and decided to try and embrace a similar idea, so recorded many single (in) breath covers of Dan’s single breath composition, picking my favourite.
