about

Programme Note:
My grandmother Jean loved to play piano, she was often tinkering away, playing by ear and singing, at home in Whitianga. I recorded her doing this a long time ago and had always intended to create something from that. I took phrases of the original recording and sampled it, playing it back via a midi keyboard. Playing the sample is like playing any instrument - pitches and notes are layered, new chords and combinations form. Plus controlling the envelope and fx. I had fun remembering my grandmother's joy at playing piano.

Bio:
Though often involved with soundtrack projects, Chestermans’ roots are in rock bands and electronic sound manipulation. In the 90’s & 00’s Lushburger, Sudersuk and Audible3 all made releases and performances.

Alongside this he worked with film-maker Florian Habicht, composing for Spookers, Love Story, Land of the Long White Cloud, Rubbings From a Live Man, Kaikohe Demolition, Woodenhead and Liebestraume. There are soundtrack albums for Woodenhead and Spookers which Chesterman produced. He also did a bunch of theatre soundtracks, most notably for Lemi Ponifasio’s MAU company.

Current music projects include Loop Zones with Ryan Smith, and Woodenhead: Reimagined, a compilation of songs inspired by the music of Woodenhead. Based in Wellington, he combines composition and music with work for RNZ and Sky TV.
