Cool concept! It would’ve been awesome if Wilco just did this in the first place, I would have probably bought a copy.
 
Highly recommended.

Field Works - Ultrasonic

Stuart Hyatt returns with another sonic wonder in the Field Works series, bringing the listener into truly uncharted acoustic territory. Ultrasonic is perhaps the first-ever album to use the echolocations of bats as compositional source material. For this special album, Hyatt has assembled an extraordinary group of contributors: Eluvium, Christina Vantzou, Sarah Davachi, Ben Lukas Boysen, Machinefabriek, Mary Lattimore, Felicia Atkinson, Noveller, Chihei Hatakeyama, John Also Bennett, Kelly Moran, Taylor Deupree, Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, Julien Marchal, and Player Piano. Ultrasonic is part of a broader storytelling project about the federally endangered Indiana bat. Generously funded by the IUPUI Arts & Humanities Institute and the National Geographic Society, each album contains an official printed booklet of The Endangered Species Act of 1973.
 
I had a chance to talk to Jason Finn about this over the weekend, and it'll be on Kickstarter. He's been doing most of the work on this and excited for everyone who wants it to get to buy the record.
Being on Kickstarter means that it might not sell out right? It's just for the production funding? Kickstarter is always a bit uuuhhh, hmm...
