Recorded during the first Covid-19 lockdown in New Zealand, the introspective tone of Rob Sinclair and Bevan Revell's Rattle debut evokes the familiar imagery of our post-pandemic world, and it touches on some of the many challenges artists face as they negotiate an increasingly uncertain world.

In the search for unique and interesting sounds to embellish the aural landscape of their recordings, Rob and Bevan developed a range of interesting instruments, such as the “potnang”, which was inspired by a gamelan orchestra instrument called “bonang”, and assembled from sonorous cooking pot lids. Various ocarina-like whistles were made from plastic jars and bottles of different sizes, and the recorder-like “suling” was made from a plastic conduit water-mains hose and vacuum-cleaner pipes.
