Sounds of St.Maarten
Field Recording
During a two month stay on St.Maarten, a Dutch island in the Caribbean, I made a lot of recordings of the sounds that, to me, were most significant on the island.The result is a playlist of recordings and compositions that are supposed to portray the island in a sonic way.
The seventh track in the playlist is a special one: “(Is)land in Earshot“ is a composition that is supposed to summarize my sonic memory after living on St. Maarten with a local family for two months. The composition might not sound like what you would expect when thinking of the Caribbean - but it is how I experienced the island from within the local community.
