about
Ordnance Survey is a collaborative project of Irish composer and producer Neil O’Connor. After producing electronic music for the past 21 years under a number of guises – most notably Somadrone - O'Connor's newest project attempts to ‘map’ a number of sound worlds including electroacoustic, jazz, and ambient. It features a number of collaborations from contemporaries such as Seán Mac Erlaine (This is How We Fly), Linda Buckley, Kate Ellis (Crash Ensemble) and John McEntire (Tortoise, The Sea and Cake). Recorded over the space of a year at his National Concert Hall studio and released in May 2019, Relative Phase sees O’Connor develop develop a heightened sense of control and restraint in his productions which integrate electronic soundscapes with Neo-classical styles. The 2nd album, Ampere, was recorded at the National Concert Hall Studios, Dublin, Seia Conservatory of Music, Portugal and the Department of Computer Science, University of Limerick between October 2018 and March 2020. It features Dónal Lunny (Bouzouki), Cormac MacDiarmada (Fiddle/Viola), Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh (Vocal & Flute), David Murphy (Pedal Steel) and Crash Ensemble.
