Musicity x Low Line London Architecture
Musicity, launched by Nick Luscombe, presenter of BBC Radio 3’s greatly-loved Late Junction music show, is collaborating with the Low Line in the latest instalment of a project which gives buildings and spaces their own new soundtrack and invites musicians and recording artists to compose tracks for cities around the world.
Fifteen musicians and recording artists have created fifteen audio tracks responding to fifteen locations in and around the railways arches which form the Low Line. Each composition can be streamed and downloaded free of charge but only by visiting each location with a smartphone. Once there, people can listen to the new music on musicityglobal.comwhile taking in the architecture and neighbourhood that inspired it.
