about

"The world’s first mash-up of an entire record label’s catalog."

I made these miniatures for the non-profit record company New World Records from 2009 to 2010, when the label was experimenting with internet radio. They generously opened their extensive archive of classical, jazz, folk, and field recordings, and I collected samples (usually 1-3 seconds long) and mashed them up.

Each miniature is a collage; short bits from multiple albums, reordered and layered into new textures and new moods.

From the original press release:

"Welcome to Catalog Miniatures, where a record company generously opens its archive to a composer wielding a sampler. Each episode features a piece constructed from short bits of recordings found in the New World Records collection."
