Our Watch Now - Witi Ihimaera and Alan Brown

Late in 2021, Alan released ‘Murmur’ through Rattle Records which incorporates some generative music explorations. After hearing Witi Ihimaera recite his poem ‘Our Watch Now’, Alan thought that it would work well with one of the pieces. He recorded Witi and created this track which was originally intended for the album. However it didn’t really fit with the album as it evolved and so Alan decided to release it as a separate track. (A version of the generative idea became the piece ‘Halting Problem’ on the album).

“With Witi's blessing, I am releasing this as a single now. Such a powerful and timely message in Witi's poem deserves a vehicle to deliver it. I hope the music does this the justice it deserves.”
