London by Tuulikki Bartosik

Every city has its own sound. In London, it’s a rumble deep under the earth, almost subliminal: the Tube train network, criss-crossing far below the pavements 24 hours a day, offering a bass, an underpinning to the music of the place. For Estonian-Swedish accordion experimenter, multi-instrumental composer Tuulikki Bartosik, it was the foundation for her new single, “London,” taken from her upcoming Playscapes album.
Like the Tube itself, it’s buried deep, under layers of drones and bones and voice, every sound , both the London sources and her own playing very carefully manipulated by Bartosik’s use of acoustic sound effects and software to recreate everything with her pedalboard, making every performance unique.
It’s a trip through an unexpected city, of surprises and hidden places, layer upon layer created in the studio. It becomes music that stands outside definition, and that was quite deliberate.

London is calling. Are you listening?
