about the cassette
Melissa F. Clarke's sound publication Arrays, on Oxtail Recordings, is her first full-length sound release. While she’s no stranger to the experimental performance scene in Brooklyn and beyond, her work has yet to be heard in a full publication—until now.
Arrays includes data sonification material that began with her journey exploring geophysical data sets from the Hudson River to similar material from Antarctica and the Arctic, where she also traveled to capture field recordings along the coast of Greenland. The work also travels into the resonant glass instrumentation from her performances and includes guitar, vocals, and field recordings from the mid-Atlantic region and cities of the American East Coast.
Altogether, the album combines work spanning many facets of her experimental sonic lexicon and generative trajectory in an emotive yet structured journey of pieces—a listening journey through different threads, components, data sets, sounds, and spaces. Arrays brings listeners into what Clarke describes as "a walk thru spaces of data + life."
