Sound+Montages

= Sound Montages: = Sound montage/sound collage/mash-up is a technique where sound objects (words, original recordings, samples, songs, sound effects, voices etc) are put together to create new audio works. The montage may have a completely different effect than that of the component parts, even if the original parts are completely recognizable or from only one source.

We used Audacity to create sound montages. All the resources you need to do this are further down the page but first here are the finished montages: || media type="youtube" key="HQal-lJrSLI" height="315" width="420" Famous sound montage //Revolution Number 9// by The Beatles: ||
