Summer Camp by Misses

Near the end of summer, my friend Imogen (aka iiinfinite: https://soundcloud.com/iiinfinitee) asked me for some harp recordings that brought the natural resonance of the instrument, and the fruits of its hollowness, to the fore. She wanted to incorporate them into a sunrise ambient set at a weekend-long summer camp party. What resulted were the following three improvisations that make me think about the arc of another summer: its disappointments, its sorrows, its lessons, and what might emerge from them. It's hard for me not to treat summer as a crescendo in which all things come to fruition. I think I'm learning that crescendos are, rather than culminations in and of themselves, perhaps more like counterpoints in volume, always co-constituted by the quietness they rest upon. I never went to summer camp as a kid, but it sounds like it was formative for a lot of people.

As before, if you choose to send me any money any money for these downloads, I will forward it (and also match however much you send) to Dahnoun Mutual Aid: chuffed.org/project/115245-dahnoun-mutual-aid

Thank you to my friend Kade (https://codeckate.bandcamp.com/) for the equipment that helped improve this music's sound quality.

Misses (Maya Weber) is a venture in resonance.
