about

The concept of music designed specifically for Airports was pioneered by Brian Eno in the 70s and has since come to be known generically by the term Ambient. The connotations that this term carries are those particularly associated with the kind of material that Brian Eno produced - familiar tunes arranged and orchestrated in a lightweight and derivative manner. Understandably, this has led most discerning listeners (and most composers) to dismiss entirely the concept of ambient music as an idea worthy of attention.

Airpods are defined as a mood, or an inherent influence: a tint. My intention is to produce original pieces ostensibly (but not exclusively) for these particular headphones with a view to building up a small but versatile catalogue of music suited to a wide variety of moods and atmospheres.

Whereas the extant music labels proceed from the basis of regularizing environments and headphones by blanketing their acoustic and atmospheric idiosyncracies, Music for Airpods is intended to enhance these. Whereas conventional music is designed to strip away all sense of doubt and uncertainty (and thus all genuine interest) , Airpod Music retains these qualities. And whereas their intention is to `brighten' the sound by adding stimulus to it (thus supposedly alleviating the tedium of routine tasks and levelling out the natural ups and downs of the body rhythms) Airpod Music is intended to induce calm, a space to think and Euphoria at the same damn time.
