Recordist's notes

It was Christmas yesterday, so I took a walk through the historical city centre. Despite the pandemic there were many people on the streets. Yet as usual, they pack the "main street" of sorts (think Oxford Street in London) but a couple of steps away there's a parallel street which is almost empty so you can hear rain drops and roof drainpipes. Recorded with Superlux S502 Stereo ORTF mic and a Zoom F8 recorder.
