Notes from the sound guy: 

This place feels like I tripped into a hidden lounge designed by fairies. It's all soft moss and benches, which means no way I'm wasting another second standing up.

The soundtrack is stripped back to the essentials. Birds darting in and out, a stream trickling nearby, grass whispering in the breeze. Even my own sigh sounds like part of the score.

There are no cars, no voices and absolutely no desire to keep on carrying this stupid sound equipment anymore.

My favourite sound in the recording: I honestly don't remember. I might have dozed off.

40 dB
