The project presents an amazingly-diverse array of field recordings from all over the world, but also reimagined, recomposed versions of those recordings as we go on a mission to remix the world. What you'll hear in the podcast are our latest sounds - either a field recording from somewhere in the world, or a remixed new composition based solely on those sounds. Each podcast description tells you more about what you're hearing, and where it came from. There are more than 8,000 sounds featured on our sound map, spread over more than 140 countries and territories . The sounds cover parts of the world as diverse as the hubbub of San Francisco’s main station, traditional fishing women’s songs at Lake Turkana, the sound of computer data centres in Birmingham, spiritual temple chanting in New Taipei City or the hum of the vaporetto engines in Venice.

It made me think about the interconnectedness of nature — no living being is truly separate, there is the same pulse that runs through every fibre of this planet. \"I started to play with the idea of turning the river into something bodily while maintaining a feeling of abstraction and fluidity. Since I wanted to fully explore its pure potentiality, I chose not to add any new sounds or instruments: Every sound in this piece is created from the same sample.\" Pretola bridge reimagined by Jen S.
