Pan to Scratch - Odemez Serie #5

Pan to Scratch helps close out the Odomez Serie. The Odomez Serie was a kind of sub-label from Constantin Dubois' Nothing Out There label. This sub-label drew it's inspiration from a burnt out factory district in Odomez, France. 

I was led to Nothing Out There through my fascination with Przewalski's Horses, a project of Constantin and his good friend Aurélie Brouet.
After losing myself in the Odomez Serie I couldn't help but find comparisons between the love these artists found for this space and the love I have for similar places. I presented my own homage to neglected scenes to Constantin and he was kind enough to include it in the series.
Presented here are recordings I made over the course of one summer, my mornings spent crossing a doomed factory grounds, in search of coffee at the market beyond. My pipe dream, inspired by the emptiness and potential of these areas, is that of a landscape void of humans yet permeated with life, fhe factory's left to crumble, nature slowly reclaiming them.
