Recordist's notes

This is one of the coldest places of Foia, a place called Barranco do Preto. Here, we can hear a small brook reverberating in the valley. This is one of the first field recordings of my girlfriend. She used the ZOOM H6 as a recorder and the MS mic of it. She also used the shotgun mic - The T.Bone EM9900. My girlfriend used the shotgun for details and the ZOOM H6 mic for the ambient. This sound is the composition of the two recorded tracks. Hope you like it.
