Recordist's notes
AB recording of amphibian voices and chorus insects at Apenkwa, Ghana. Apenkwa is a new addition to areas in and around Koforidua where wetlands have been affected by building and construction activities. The amphibian calls are characterized by low frequeny croaks, and textures, and are spread across the stereofield. Some parts of the soundscape can heard empty, but but later builds up with the voices of the amphibians. A feint stream can be heard in the right channel when the soundscape goes quiet. Subtle musical beats can be heard from afar. Recording by Emmanuel Baffoe. Field Recording Mentoring, Monitoring, Editing, and Mastering by Samuel Kudjodzi. Emmanuel Baffoe is one of 5 trainees selected for the Soundscape Ecology Education Ghana program organised by Samuel Kudjodzi, Founder of CSEM (Center for Soundscape Ecology and Multimedia) @csem_official. This project is supported by earth fm with field recording equipment set.
