Ears To The Ground: Adventures in Field Recording and Electronic Music by Ben Murphy explores how electronic music producers and sound artists use field recordings to capture and reflect their surroundings. Through interviews with artists like Leafcutter John, KMRU, and Kate Carr, the book reveals how these recordings add context, emotion, and meaning to music, while also addressing critical contemporary issues. Spanning diverse locations from military test sites to remote bird colonies, the book travels from Orkney to Antarctica, offering a global perspective on how sound can document and shape our understanding of the world.
