Recordist's notes
Hot summer afternoon beside on a country road near Houghton Lake, Michigan. A few variety of what I call field crickets arise from the surrounding fields, joining a couple of singing birds further into the woods. A tiny bit of road noise from about 3/4 of a mile away, otherwise calm day and little interference. Just one take from a Tascam Dr-07, only edits are fade in/out and gain increase. Be sure to check out my soundcloud for lots more field recordings, sound collages and ambient mixtapes: https://soundcloud.com/rjsfoundsounds
