We hear a lot of music at Factory.
That’s one of the many great things about my job as a Sound Designer, listening to new artists, unearthing hidden gems, rediscovering forgotten classics and then being allowed to work with them to make something fresh and original.
The process involved in finding that ‘right’ track for a film or an ad can take us on an amazing musical journey. This has often led to me scurrying home to hunt through my record collection for an album I haven’t played in years, all the while thinking I should’ve paid more attention to an efficient A – Z filing system of said collection.
So this journey was to be my starting point for what you’re about to hear, an eclectic selection of tracks that have either just missed out on being the ‘chosen’ track for a job, or equally, have inspired and informed us on our journey. Either way, I’ve enjoyed re-discovering them and I hope you do too.
Oh, and no playlist from me could be complete without the unofficial paean to sound designers from The Bonzo Dog Band. Thanks to my brother Pete for unearthing that little beaut!
