The Ecology of Sound - Escala de Grisos /
Thanks very much to @escala_de_grisos for the lovely review of my album The Intimate Overlap.
“Every sound, no matter how faint, is treated as essential. This is what gives the album its strange intimacy: the sense that everything we hear is happening not in front of us, but with us, at the same molecular level.”
Thanks again to @norihiko_terayama for his beautiful works on the albums layout 💐
Full review is here, thank you ☺️

Thank you for listening x
‘Working with field recordings, acousmatic and modular synthesis techniques, The Intimate Overlap is presented in a suite of two parts ‘a structure in naming’ and ‘a nearness to the world’ over four longform pieces covering the album’s 73 minute running time.
Created over a nine year period as a delicate micro-drama of shifting proximities, each holding onto their roots, folding, seeking nutrients, learning and unlearning.
An ecological relationship with micro sounds that are at once ecstatic, animated, tentative and visceral.
A neurodivergent yearning for new ways to connect, articulate and circulate.
An ecology of the senses in a music used as language’.
Norihiko Terayama _ studio-note. /
I'm really very happy to announce that I'm working on something with the Japanese designer and artist Norihiko Terayama (studio-note).
I really love his work.
More great news very soon.
Filmscores Volume Eleven /
The newest mix in my Filmscores series, Volume Eleven is now online
with my friends in Ireland thirtythree-45.
Each time I do one of these it’s always inspired by one film in particular that really moved me.
This time it was two, Touch Me Not by Adina Pantilie and Softie by Samuel Theis.
Intimacy, always.
‘Music for the quiet dark nights, solemn yet life affirming.
Headphones on and lights out.’
Brian Hegarty - thirtythree-45
Filmscores Volume Ten /
Filmscores Volume Ten is the newest mix in my Filmscores series, now kindly hosted by my friends in Ireland thirtythree-45.
‘thirtythree-45’ has long admired the work of Scottish musician sound artist ‘Orla Wren’ so it is a great pleasure to host his newest work Filmscore 10. Beautifully crafted, sublime and emotional, put the headphones on, lights out and settle back' .
Brian Hegarty, thirtythree-45.
Culture Night /
I was very happy to be invited recently to show some of the wonderful films that have been made for my music over the years at the Culture Night Film and Music Trail by Droichead Arts Centre.
Each film was an installation within an abandoned shop front in the town of Drogheda, Ireland on loop twenty four hours a day for a week.
A Woven Rope Of Woven Hope
Rooted in friendship and common creative fields, A Woven Rope Of Woven Hope is an audiovisual exhibition and installation from sound artist Orla Wren, filmmakers Robert Shaw (Lumacell), Joey Bania and Haruhisa Ueda (Film Sessions).
The Words Under The Wood, Five Acre Ladder, Move Learn Drink Water, Four Feathers Few and A Woven Rope Of Woven Hope by Orla Wren are all rendered beautifully within the hypnotic cinematography of Lumacell, Joey Bania and Haruhisa Ueda.
Filmic incantations full of ecstatic beauty and optimism.
Documents of experience and affirmations on what it is to be human.
Brian Hegarty (thirtythree-45)

expanding records box set /
A compilation album box-set based on the complete Expanding Records vinyl albums.
During the four year period between 2001 and 2006 Expanding Records released a series of seventeen albums on vinyl by artists from all over the world.
The albums shared a common vision: to explore the boundaries of instrumental electronic music in a completely uncompromising way.
They represent a certain period in music which now, fifteen years on, seems to evoke a unique search for beauty and clarity in an ever more blurred world.
A limited edition of only 175 copies are available over at the bandcamp of label boss Benge - here

I answered a few questions over at Son Of Marketing, thanks to Nicola Orlandino.
the blind deaf stone /
“It felt like my every neurone was enveloped in the softest organic life. Nurture.”
G.M.Dickson
“A beautiful album, very proud to have been involved.”
Michael Lawrence|Bladud Flies
“Disarmingly beautiful.”
Marisa Joaquim Lourenco|Kunstkamera curator of dreams
In the summer of 2020 I made a record with and from one monophonic synthesizer and a pair of stereo binaural mics, in the middle of nowhere in Scotland, an analog study in radical reductionism.
My new friends Michael Lawrence and Lauren Winten at Bladud Flies mastered and pressed it onto two lathe cut, clear vinyl 10” records in Wales. My old friend Colin Herrick then did his usual intricate lunacy with the packaging in San Francisco.
A marvellous story and a globe trotting one of sorts in a slightly slowed down world.
Four sides of vinyl, four longform pieces, in three movements each.
The Blind Deaf Stone is available on double 10" vinyl and limited edition CD only from Colin over at Time Released Sound.
Thanks and love to all involved and connected 💐❤️
