Recordist's notes
Every year around Christmas time all sorts of makeshift bands travel the city playing repetitive patterns (they pretend they are doing traditional rhythms or carols but far from the truth) and hoping for passers by and people living in apartment blocks to give them money. Recorded with Superlux S502 Stereo ORTF mic and a Zoom F8 recorder.
