Sonic Journeys is a collection of aural landscapes that connect the creator, listener and music with the world around us.

Sonic Journeys commissions artists to create new works inspired by specific stretches of landscape experienced on rural and urban journeys.

These works are available for free download so you can copy them to your phone or MP3 device, and listen to them as you take the same journey.

Exclusively for The Space, sounduk has now filmed these journeys so that even if you can’t make the journey, you can sit back and enjoy the landscape together with the music inspired by it.
