Available in: gb icon
Christopher Richard Watson was born in Sheffield, 1952. He is a musician and sound recordist specialising in natural history.

Watson was a founding member of two influential experimental music groups, Cabaret Voltaire and The Hafler Trio.
He has released four solo albums of field recordings: Outside the Circle of Fire, Stepping into the Dark (which won an Award of Distinction at the 2000 Prix ARS Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria), Weather Report, and El Tren Fantasma. He has also released a variety of works in collaboration with other artists, including Star Switch On, a collaboration with Mika Vainio of Pan Sonic, Philip Jeck, Hazard, Fennesz, AER[disambiguation needed], and Biosphere. In 2007 he released Storm with BJNilsen, and in 2011 he released "Cross-Pollination" with Marcus Davidson. All of these recordings were released on Touch.
The Weather Report album from 2003 was named as one of the thousand albums you should hear before you die in The Guardian.
