about

Clutching jaw tightens eyes consists of four tracks of rhythmic soundscapes, downbeat, dub, house and ambience. Each track was written using field recordings taken by Ghostsoul, in and around Melbourne during 2022.

Post Melbourne’s pandemic lockdowns the noise floor of the inner suburbs grew louder as people re-entered work and social environments. The growing loudness resulted in a returning social anxiety. The anomaly of society shutting down had resulted in a peace, or at least a break from the burnout noise that results from making life while trying to not fall over the edge.

Clutching jaw tightens eyes uses field recordings from various locations around Melbourne.

1. Edge of self, features recordings of birds at 6am from a living room window, a tram with people conversing, and a freeway overpass.

2. Dark horizon, features leaves scraping across concrete in the wind, outside a living room window.

3. Behind my eyes, features a recording of the M1 freeway from a fourth story bathroom window at midnight.

4. Waiting rain, features a high gain recording, captured after midnight, from a living room window, as the rain travelled over the city.
