Andrew Wasylyk (the alias of Scottish writer, producer and multi-instrumentalist, Andrew Mitchell) invites the listener to explore the city through sound. Six selected architectural sites, or, open spaces, have inspired a series of vignettes echoing the materials, everyday use and romanticised memories of a landscape considerably changed through the decades. From the celebrated to the forgotten, the melancholic to the uplifting, the ambient to the hypnotic, Wasylyk’s soundtrack asks the nostalgist in us all to consider an alternative view of his hometown of Dundee.
