    Because this project is so close to our hearts, we wanted to offer it in an exclusive collector's format.

    This recycled cardboard mini-case contains a 2GB laser-engraved wooden USB key, on which you'll find the entire African Expedisound sound bank.

    The boxes are hand-numbered from 1 to 50, and only 33 are for sale on our Bandcamp. The remaining 17 boxes are intended for the artists and the I.O.T Records team. A few boxes will also be offered to other artists we particularly like and would like to thank.

    If you have a favorite number you can ask us for it in the comments of your order, but we can't promise that it will be available. If it is, we'll be happy to give it to you! If not, you'll get one at random. Chance does well anyway.

about

Expedisound, folklore from the global zone in three albums

With the Expedisound series, launched in 2004, Marseille-based label I.O.T Records built surprising bridges between cultures. Just imagine: the label's members - and their many supporters - loaded up trucks with machines, samplers, recorders and microphones, and set off to discover traditional or trance music in West Africa, Indonesia, Ulan Bator or deep in China's Yunnan.

At the crossroads of the Sound Conspiracy adventure, Real World, and field recording's quasi-ethnographic but still punk attempts, Expedisound telescoped popular or folk music from the four corners of the planet with the libertarian ideals of freewheeling electronic travellers.

African Expedisound in 2003, Mongolia Expedisound in 2007, ending with China Expedisound in 2012... These albums compile miles of road, parties, encounters and, above all, sound. And it's this sonic material that is now finding a second wind: coupled with the Expedisound experience, the Soundbanks project compiles all the recording work prior to the various opuses in the series.

I.O.T Records Soundbanks get a makeover

These soundbanks, a raw field-recording experience, bring together hundreds of hours of cut loops and samples available to producers in search of dusty roads or songs from the Mongolian steppes.

I.O.T. Records now offers a new version of the soundbanks: reworked, processed and of better quality... This new ready-to-be-composed sound database features, initially, the sound material gleaned from the Expedisound dedicated to Africa.

In all: five ambiances, fifty-four voices, fifteen djembe and five doumdoum (fills), twenty djembe and doumdoum (loop), fifty-one percs one shot and sixty-two vox one shot. Sound material recorded in Mongolia, then in China, will follow.
