Musicians and artists around the world have collaborated in an experiment to compose a soundtrack to isolation. 

The experiment, initiated during the lockdown by music producer Max De Lucia, sees the creation of one continuous piece of music by a host of distinguished musicians and producers.

The Lockdown Experiment is an ongoing project which has already amassed contributions from leading names internationally across the music industry, including Davide Rossi, famous for work with Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Goldfrapp and Gorillaz.

Max De Lucia, also co-founder of music and sound agency DLMDD, comments: ‘Amongst the chaos and uncertainty caused by Covid-19, people around the world are being brought together by the enormous power of music. This experiment is more than just a show of music’s ability to connect us during these times, it’s also a great display of the creativity that’s happening whilst we’re all locked away behind closed doors.

‘On day one, we had no idea where the idea would take us. But thanks to the ingenious contributions from so many incredible artists across the world, a powerful soundtrack is emerging to mark this unique moment in history. We’re honoured that so many distinguished musicians have come on-board so far and I can’t wait to see how the track continues to unfold in the coming weeks.’

The Lockdown Experiment is ongoing and can be watched below.
