Eight Listening Lounge producers gathered on the frigid Mall in the nation’s capital last Saturday. The mission: to record one minute of sound. The 60 seconds are strung together here for your enjoyment. It’s not quite 8 minutes flat, but it’s close enough. The producers are listed here in order of the sound clip: Jocelyn Frank, Selena Simmons-Duffin, Tina Tennessen, Ben Pagac, Melati Keye, Dan Poppy, Teague Lyons, and Ben Bloom.

2010 Recording Spree #1: The Mall

You’re Hot played at the 2009 Sound Scene installation — here is dj bent’s artist statement: This piece by dj bent documents the first visit to a gun range by her 14 year old god daughter. Guns are controversial, but they exist, and knowledge of their use will be crucial to survive the coming/present apocalypse, whether it includes zombies or not; dj bent and her goddaughter are set on survival. Guns that we shot included two rifles (Savage Arms 64F and Yugo SKS), five semi automatic hand guns (Ruger MK II, Walther P1, Makarov, CZ52 and Colt 1911), and one fully automatic machine gun (NFA HK 416) to cap off the day at Blue Ridge Arsenal in Chantilly, Virginia, where they even have zombie posters for target practice. With thanks to our teacher Dexter and help from dj mothersheister and dj rAt.
