Field Recording #5


Metal Railing

The sound is made by me plucking the bars between each microphone attached to a metal railing.

Field Recording #4


Overflowing gutters

This is the sound of fast moving water and it flows over the edge of the gutters that are clogged because they are still frozen.

Field Recording #3


Vibrating Sign

I positioned the the two microphones on the sign and then hit the pole as well as plucked the sign itself.

Field Recording #2


Falling Ice

I broke various parts of ice off the gutters and dropped it onto the ice below

Field Recording #1



Wind Chimes

On my drift I stumbled across a house with wind chimes and decided to record them. You can hear birds in the tree and a dog somewhere nearby. There is also a short portion where a woodpecker is pecking on a branch in the tree.
