In the heart of creativity, a project was born - "AMUE," an experimental electronic album that weaves together the realms of film, dance music, and a deep homage to the vibrant tapestry of Nairobi through the Sound of Nairobi Archive. Conceived in 2019 and brought to life in 2021, "AMUE" stands as a testament to resilience, resourcefulness, and a passion for pushing artistic boundaries.
The Genesis
"AMUE" was initially envisioned for a unique matatu installation, promising a surround sound experience that would envelop its audience in a sonic journey like no other. However, the path to realization was fraught with challenges. Resource constraints and personal struggles, including a period of admission to a psychiatric ward, tested the project's foundation.
Overcoming Challenges
Undeterred by setbacks, the creator embraced resourcefulness. Learning ambisonics and audio networking became imperative, enabling the project to evolve in unexpected ways. From the ashes of adversity, a new vision emerged, and "AMUE" found its home in the cutting-edge realm of Dolby Atmos.
Dolby Atmos Experience
Now, the album is being meticulously mixed in Dolby Atmos, transcending traditional audio boundaries and immersing listeners in a three-dimensional sonic landscape. Every beat, every note is meticulously crafted to transport the audience into the heart of Nairobi's soul.
