I quite fancied prancing about pretending to be a composer so I asked a bunch of people to send me recordings in either C Minor or Eb Major. Then I stitched together a bit of this and a bit of that and made this lovely monster: Once Were Strangers. I knew some of the people very well, others were friends of friends, and the task felt heavy with responsibility towards all the contributions that people had trusted me with. I set a rule for myself that I would use something from everyone who contributed but in the end I didn’t really need that rule because this thing emerged with each contributor taking a little space together. I would like to do more stuff like this.
