Derbyshire Makes Part 3 - Part Fantasy

An ambient, musical, manipulated reworking of the everyday sounds of Glossop, by Clare Savory and Simon Galloway.

The two sound artists have taken samples from the soundscapes of episode 31, and transformed them into warped loops, sprinkled with plenty of reverb, added a bit of synth - and voila, this is Glossopdale as you’ve never heard before!

The result is a half hour long sonic journey from spacious calming chords accompanied by nature, to harsh rhythmic percussive-like loops created from the town’s machines and traffic.

Longer versions of the original soundscapes are available on our digital map, visit www.longdendaletales.co.uk and search ‘soundscapes’ where you’ll see/hear plenty more pins across the whole of Glossopdale! (Thank you Helen Newman for doing this)

All of our Longdendale Tales episodes are also available as video podcasts, you can watch visualised film versions via YouTube: www.youtube.com/@longdendaletales

Or audio versions are available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you listen to your podcasts.
