The Sound Icons project has been one of our longest running fascinations. Before we gave them away this summer, we were able to record this record with our Artistic Director @josephmbates. Do check it: https://t.co/yuvCDr9RxQ

It's great to see this video of our Sound Icons in use! October House will be releasing @josephmbates's work for them, Us Alone, which came out of our Radulescu project back in 2016. It's been recorded with the amazing Severine Ballon and will be released next Friday!

@ElliotGalvin @ejthackray They've lived in the basement in my block of flats for years, drawing some very surprised reactions when I've played them...

@j_watson_music @MarkGothamMusic Hi Jenni! Do send us a DM – we're doing first-come-first-served so to speak, but as there's logistics involved for everyone we have to see how it'll shake out.

[Filthy Lucre @Filthy_Lucre_]

Sadly, we have to give away our sound icons next week, due to storage problems. Sound Icons are grand pianos stripped of components and turned sideways to be accessible to extended techniques. If anybody wants these beautiful things, they can have them for the price of delivery.

@MarkGothamMusic That's wonderful Mark, we'll send you a message.

We were lucky enough to hear this live at @HCMFUK and it’s really amazing. The sound of the drums with slack skins really sticks in your bones. Listen here and book for its London performance on the 3rd:
