Recordist's notes
Into a huge plastic cistern, I explain slowly the place history. As I especially like cistern and objetcs like that, I often speak into, in aim to play with the reverb effect. I'm absolutely not use with the plastic object, in fact here it's an agricultural fiberglass object. This one has a special tube and metal feeling. As it's quite sharp, it's not necessarily the one I prefer.
