Notes from the sound guy: 

You’ll find the lime stoves where Skåne is the flattest, not far from Sweden's southernmost point. A narrow dirt road leads there. When I arrived, leaving the car didn’t seem so appealing. The rain was pouring down. But then Josefine from Visit Skåne called and wondered how things were going, so I popped out and started recording. The sound is about the same during the whole hour I recorded. You hear the raindrops hit the microphone, but I guess that doesn’t matter. Maybe I should have had an umbrella on top of it? But then you would have heard the rain hitting the umbrella instead.

My favourite sound in the recording: The gradually varying intensity of the rain over the 60-minute recording, which could put even the most sugar-filled little three-year-old to sleep.
