Dezeen Music Project: Butterfly Mix
by Anders Malmberg
Anders Malmberg incorporates birdsong, cars and a "dancing piano" in this next track from our new initiative Dezeen Music Project.
"The track was made for Revisit/Rewind, a multi diciplinary exhibition + record & book concisting of sounds/music, texts and images, that deals with the issues of returning to the place where we once grew up," says Malmberg. "The piano was recorded in my parents' living room and the ambient sounds at a nearby lake where i used to go in Karlskoga, Sweden."
You can hear more of Malmberg's music on his blog.
