Recordist's notes
Recorded with an Olympus LS-P4 and a pair of LOM Usis hung from tree branches. This is a space that is mostly inaccessible. The voices of the cicadas are very strong; they are drowned out by the overwhelming thrum of traffic but are in a different frequency range so still audible.
