Media composers Ryan Majoris and Liam Fox O'Brien were fortunate to have access to the Brooklyn Navy Yard during the New York City Covid-19 lockdown. This unique and historic maritime property, once home to America's mightiest warships, was decommissioned in 1966 and retains a host of idiosyncratic spaces, objects and details. Applying their love of film scoring and sound design, Majoris and O'Brien collected a vast array of foley and field sounds inspired by post-industrialism, defunct military machinery, transport, manufacturing, seafaring vessels and oceanic darkness. The end result is a meticulously crafted, sleek production pack of generative ideas designed to inspire and transport the listener, as well as provide generous headroom to larger musical and sonic concepts.
