Crystal Radio by Northfield Lenox published on 2022-01-29T02:53:19Z “Crystal Radio” is 4 track album released in 2022. The central thread related to how time and life flow in an unpredictable pattern, but within boundaries. Lines are created based on decisions we make, big or small. How different would someone’s life change based on these decisions? Even say, stopping or not stopping to have a drink at a water fountain, decades previously. Everything after would have been jostled around, but with what impact? Two previous tracks have used this theme. ‘Silica Daughter’ appears on the 2021 project “Cloktacs III” and uses a sample where the question is asked, “You won’t fail me will you?”. Later in 2021, samples from the 90-year-old movie ‘Back Street’ were repurposed to create a radio play called ‘Back Lane’ which will be aired as part of the 2022 Radiophrenia event in Scotland. The storyline of the movie follows a chain of events set in motion by a simple decision that alters the lives of the characters completely, forever, and ends in a classic, ‘what if’… This all led to creating a new project, interestingly, by deciding to reach out to another SoundCloud artist for help with some spoken word recordings. As we started working on this new project, Jennifer Roe, took the track ‘Silica Daughter’, added vocal tracks and lyrics inspired by the media samples, and transformed it into something completely new. The result is absolutely beautiful, is now called ‘Silica Daughters [Ft. Jen Roe]’ and was the impetus and first track for the ‘Crystal Radio’ project. The final track “Tracing Home” again features Jennifer, bookending this project with two fabulous performances. Contains tracks Silica Daughters [Ft.
