Sound Work Recordings was initiated in 1995 as a recording project for the Sound Works Exchange, to release C.D.'s that documented each annual event. Since the release of the first two C.D.'s in 1995/6 it has progressed to being a recording project oin its own right and has started to release material independently, the first of these being Hafen - A Mail Art Project, a co-production between shinkansen and German sound artist's Klangkrieg.

Felix and Tim of Klangkrieg recorded a series of sound samples from around Hamburg harbour, these were then forwarded to the other artists from the Sound Works Exchange 1 to re-record, process and otherwise re-assemble and the result is Hafen, a very engaging experience. This recording was originially envisaged as a radio broadcast and we are very keen to hear from anyone working with radio who would be interested in broadcasting it, please contact us for further details.
