laptop and keyboard….and the resulting sounds and atmosphere we bring to

As Rezo himself says…
“The Diary Of The Second Officer” has been created in various parts
of the world. I travelled with my mini setup: laptop, headphones, 3
octave midi keyboard and hand recorder. Field recordings are from the
Batumi Botanical Garden, from road trips, as well as from a Georgian
village called Chibati, and other places I deemed inspiring enough to
capture in should and mood. Sounds for the “Moved By” tracks were
recorded in a car, ship and airplane accordingly, with my hand recorder.
Sampled recorded sounds are from airports in Istanbul and Singapore.
The city soundscapes of Batumi, Singapore and Kagoshima are also present
on this album.”
This fourth release in the “chocolate box” series comes in an edition
of just 80 uniquely hand made copies. Each comes in a heavy duty hinge
lidded chocolate box, collaged with antique blueprints and containing
shredded antique diary pages, antique mini b/w film stills, two sided

series, this will also be available at some point on a standard 5″
