Constructed in 2005 at Zadar in Croatia, the Sea Organ is a 70m long ‘acoustic jetty’ designed by architect Nikola Bašić. The structure incorporates 35 polyethylene tubes of varying diameter inside which air, displaced by waves, is forced through large whistles tuned to play seven chords of five tones all day long, every day.
In 2006 it won the European Prize for Urban Public Space, inspiring the creation of Peter Richards and George Gonzalez’s Wave Organ in San Francisco.

I make Trad/electronic songs and I’m based in Manchester. You featured my band Bold Things over the years and I think you might like this too. I’m putting out my debut EP 29/10/15. Here’s a track from it. It’s a song made with a pristine violin I found in a wheelie bin outside my flat! Its a shocking insight into how mundane ‘the busiest bus route in Europe’ is! I’m streaming the entire EP temporarily via a video of bus stop goings-on in south Manchester on my website from 24th-28th October.
