Recordist's notes

(binaural) ambience of the hotel yard. a place meant to relax near a fountain in the back of the hotel. but there is a lot of traffic noise trapped here from a nearby expressway as well as from air conditioning units. it was rather impossible to relax and have a quiet conversation.
