Recordist's notes
On the riverbank at Warta ribver, east of Śrem, not far from the village of Bystrzek. Far on the right, the microphone picked up sounds of a man fishing with his young son on one of the riverbanks at a bend in the river. A small motorboat steered by a man passes by. He was wearing a cowboy hat and looked very relaxed crusnig by at slow speed. Disco polo music blares from a speaker. As the boat passes near the two mentioned earlier, the man steering the boat sounds the horn and exchanges a few words with the man on the riverbank. (Tascam FR-AV2 + LOM Uši Pro)
