A character piece full of fun, Dodgems paints a picture of a favourite fairground attraction. We start by sensing two cars butting up gently against each other before one slams into the other, causing an almighty crash. After the cars have been reset, the fun begins again but this time in the other direction, resulting in an even bigger collision. This piece requires a vivid imagination, a wide dynamic range, and control of triads as they bounce across the keyboard.
