\"\"<\/a>The Ditch – 2022 – Behind the Scenes<\/em><\/h2>\n

“The Ditch” is a music film by Jesse Hunt, Trevor Henthorn and Mike Hawk with 2\/22\/2022 release date.<\/p>\n

The “Ditch Ambience” video demonstrates the acoustic differences between the “Ditch-A” and “Ditch-B” recording spaces.<\/p>\n

“The Ditch” film was built from an audio and video collaboration between Jesse Hunt (Cyanotic & Conformco), Trevor Henthorn (SWEAT ENGINE, Medical Grade & AMF) and videographer Mike Hawk. It combines Jesse’s raw industrial and metallic percussion with Trevor’s drums and machines and Mike\u2019s video and mix aesthetic.<\/p>\n

For “The Ditch”, Audio and video recordings were captured in 2 urban ditches : Ditch-A, an hour outside of Chicago and follow-up with Ditch-B in San Diego. Ditch-A is a culvert that passes under a 2-lane road, joining drainage ditches. It is a rectangular concrete tunnel with opening that is approximately 12-feet by 12-feet by 60-feet long. Ditch-B is a 2-track railroad passing under a 4-lane concrete bridge. The space is a cube with open sides. It is a square tunnel with large opening that is approximately 60-feet by 60-feet by 60-feet long. Ditch-B includes 4 concrete pillars on each side of the railroad tracks.<\/p>\n

To demonstrate the difference in acoustic spaces, impulse responses were captured in each ditch using large balloons. The dry sound from Trevor’s frame drum is presented first dry, then with the addition of convolution reverb based on Ditch-B (as the drum actually sounded in that space), then Ditch-A, then both simultaneously, then dry again, then both again.<\/p>\n

On 2\/22\/2022, get “The Ditch” on Video DVD, Audio CD, USB thumb drive or download from Bandcamp and receive access to the full video and extras online.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
