Recordist's notes
Ça pourrait être une calme nuit d’été, mais ce soir se court un rally automobile. Les moteurs prennent possession de l’ambiance du village & de la campagne alentour, dans l’indifférence des grillons mais l’inquiétude de Roger le chat. It could be a quiet summer’s night, but tonight there’s a car rally taking place. The engines are taking over the ambiance of the village and the surrounding countryside, whilst the crickets remain unperturbed but Roger the cat is worried. Olympus LS12 recording
