2021 年夏天，制片人查尔斯·范·柯克 (Charles Van Kirk) 骑着自行车穿越美国 3,900 英里，从缅因州的大西洋海岸到达俄勒冈州的太平洋。 他在车把包里装了一台 Zoom H6，在穿越 14 个州的两个月旅程中进行了录音。
这些录音的亮点已被收集起来，用于纪念性的两部分 Splice Explores 发行。 每个包中都有数百种声音，构成了美国多样化且美丽的音景； 路边传来的声音：火车穿过南达科他州的大草原，雷暴在爱荷华州的玉米田上噼啪作响。 国家公园传来声音：野牛的咕噜声和蒙大拿州间歇泉的喷发。 帐篷内传来声音：河水奔腾，半夜土狼嚎叫。
除了现场录音的自然混音之外，该包还包括用源自源材料的乐器精心制作的音乐循环。 Charles 使用 Sensory Percussion 传感器在他的鼓组上用这些定制乐器演奏凹槽，创造出超凡脱俗的节奏和独一无二的层次。 由此产生的循环充满了这些样本包特有的纹理和色调。 深入研究这个包，探索美国所提供的真正广泛的声音。
In the summer of 2021, producer Charles Van Kirk rode his bicycle 3,900 miles across the USA from the Atlantic coast in Maine to the Pacific Ocean in Oregon. He packed a Zoom H6 in his handlebar bag and made recordings throughout the two month long journey through fourteen states.
The highlights of these recordings have been gathered for a monumental two part Splice Explores release. In each pack are hundreds of sounds that make up the diverse and beautiful soundscape of America; sounds from the side of the road: trains crossing the South Dakota prairie and thunderstorms crackling over Iowa cornfields. There are sounds from national parks: bison grunting and geysers erupting in Montana. There are sounds from inside a tent: rivers rushing and coyotes howling in the middle of the night.
In addition to natural mixes of the field recordings, this pack includes expertly crafted musical loops made with instruments that were derived from the source material. Charles used Sensory Percussion sensors to perform grooves on his drum set with these custom instruments to create otherworldly rhythms and one-of-a-kind layers. The resulting loops are full of texture and tone unique to these sample packs. Dive into this pack and explore the truly vast palette of sounds that America has to offer.
