PURE Soundbath - Slow TV for Lockdown

Press Release

PURE Soundbath from Chris Lewis on Vimeo.
A lockdown film made 9000 miles apart - "like going on holiday for three weeks".

Australian Filmmaker Chris Lewis and English Composer David Lol Perry teamed-up around the world to create ‘PURE Soundbath’, a new Slow TV film to calm lockdown nerves (but does make us want to travel again!).

David, best-known for his charting 2017 Warner Classics album ‘Three Wings’ featuring Winchester College’s Quirister boys, ‘met’ Geraldton, WA based Chris, a cameraman for broadcaster ABC, on Twitter. David was unable to continue his sell-out ‘Soundbaths’, gigs where guests lie down and drift-off, immersed in hi-res music. Chris wanted to make a ‘Slow TV’ film, that too, mesmerises.

The music was recorded in ‘3D’ or ‘Binaural’ sound to replicate the surround sound of the soundbaths. Chris’s sumptuous photography includes stunning underwater shots, even underneath waves as well as gorgeous drone panoramas. It was largely shot in Merimbula, New South Wales. The result is an engaging and extremely calming experience. The hour-long film is available to buy or rent on Vimeo.
