GCC AND FRONT & FOLLOW PRESENT: RENTAL YIELDS

A new project bringing together artists to create new unsettling sounds to help tackle homelessness in Manchester.

Welcome to RENTAL YIELDS - a new collaborative compilation from GCC and Front & Follow, following the YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE compilation and membership pack.

RENTAL YIELDS is a direct follow-up to that project, and will again be in support of a Manchester-based homelessness charity (all money raised from YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE went to the wonderful Coffee4Craig) and seek to raise awareness of the huge inequality in Manchester, and beyond.

The idea is simple. Sort of. We want your borrowed sounds, your blatant abuse of the sonic marketplace for your own gratification and benefit. Just think of the potential rental yield.

In practice - all contributing artists will be randomly assigned another artist from the group and have to ‘borrow’ directly from that artist, creating a brand new piece.

You could borrow a full track, stems, samples or maybe not even sounds at all, but something else… it would be up to each artist to decide what and how to do that, but in a friendly and collaborative manner of course!

We are currently getting a sense of the level of interest - if you fancy it, or have any questions, then please do get in touch.

Deadline for being involved is 4th Feb. Then a full plan will emerge (with enough time for you to work your magic).
