Hearingfield

Hearingfield is an ambient synthesized music project by Seattle based composer and musician, Michael Mitchell.

Its purpose is to provide a separate outlet for musical works, which are aimed squarely at audiophile Hi-Fi systems.

In addition to Hearingfield, Mitchell has also released several EPs and albums since 2000, under the name “Iguassu”.

This Is Not A Song is a representation of synesthesia, as I’ve always experienced it. Thankfully, it’s been made possible by my discovery of Direct Stream Digital (DSD) recording and audiophile Hi-Fi systems, and the enhanced immersion that these technologies provide.

To some, the recordings may be viewed more as calibration tracks for an audio system. But maybe they will also encourage people to think about experiencing music and sound in a different way.
