Cullykhan Water uses a number of recordings taken at Cullykhan Beach in northeast Scotland, ranging from tiny drips of rainwater to the crashing sea of the Moray Firth. It was composed as part of a project with artist Bryan Angus and poet Martin Malone, where each artist created a work of art in their own medium, informed by the same stimulus.
