Concrète Jungle is a musique concrète-inspired collection of voices of unknown and well-known New York natives, composed and live mixed by Dan Siegler. It features rhythmic word patterns, ambient city noise, borough-specific accents and highlights in-between breaths, linguistic filler and word repetitions to create assembled sentences, musical grooves and reordered conversations between people who have never met.
