You will hear Trevor's voice, and Trevor and Hal playing Moog Grandmother and Behringer Poly D analog synthesizers.

Trash Milagro consists of 624 recordings that Rafael and Hal made during the month of December with small pocket-sized battery-operated digital dictaphones. At the end of the month we played these recordings on four dictaphones in random/shuffle mode and mixed them together with Audacity, with no additional effects. We exported 24-bit WAV files from Audacity and uploaded them directly to Bandcamp.

You will hear sounds from many different times, spaces, and places. Have fun listening to our trash!

Trash Milagro is an immersive 90-minute audio trash assemblage that is meant to be experienced as one continuous experience or happening. We have divided the assemblage into six 15-minute tracks for the listener's convenience.

We recommend downloading WAV files for optimum sound quality.
