ICR09: Roadside Picnic - Watership DrownedRoadside Picnic aka sound artist Justin Wiggan presents us with Watership Drowned, a two sided recording compromising of piercing noise, mellow drones and electonic manipulation. The recording revolves around the process of extracting the nostalgic response and influence from the film Watership Down and how the essence of the ideas contained within have an effect on people. It is concerned with the exploration of the mystery of death and the death of nature within the film and it's world.
