Growing out of a recording session project held at the British Museum in London in October 2023, here comes "Un-Muting," a fascinating 10-inch conceived not as a music album but as a diagram! Improvised performances using, by special permission, traditional African instruments that had been put on display in the British Museum and thereby stripped of their original function of being played. Those recordings were then brought back to the studio and re-edited, developed further with overdubs of Western instruments from the artist's own collection — a work of sound art.
