Recordist's notes
Mediterranean Sea on the beach at noontime. Only a slight breeze. The place is called Wave-Beach by the locals, due to the sea usually building up high waves on this side of the island. Not so on this day which made recording possible. Binaural recording. Artificial head microphone set up on the ground, about four meters away from the waterline using an umbrella as windshelter. Microphone facing north west .Recorded with a Sound Devices 702 field recorder and a modified Crown - SASS setup incorporating two Sennheiser mkh 20 microphones.
