Recordist's notes
Das Reiben und Quitschen der Pontons bei ablaufendem Wasser. Kurz legt das Lotsenschiff "Elbe 1" an und fährt gleich wieder los. Ansonsten quietscht es mächtig. Ein kleine Motorboot versucht sich Gehör zu verschaffen, dochh.. Sonntagabend, die Elbe ziehts zur Nordssee. Aufgenommen mit Olympus LS12 + externem Badewannen-Doppelnackenkissen-Mikrofon (selbstgebastelt, is klar.. total binaural, nä?) :-)
