Mix by Checkpoint 303| Palestinian
Territories, Tunisia [listen]
The electronic experiment kicked off in 2004 when Tunisian sound cutter
SC MoCha teamed up with Bethlehem based Palestinian sound catcher
SC Yosh to form Checkpoint 303. the idea was to cut, track, fragment
and reconstruct the audio soundscape from daily lives in the middle
east. new audio reporting on injustice. Paris-based SC MoCha reworks
the field recordings made by SC Yosh in the occupied territories into
rhythmical transcriptions that range from raw acoustic aggression
to synthetic soothing tunes with everything in between.
