Recordist's notes

Another walk round the outdoor market in the town centre. Snatches of conversation in the Gloucestershire accent and other incidental sounds. The stereo image shifts as I try to squeeze myself between stalls. The wind blows traders tents and stall covers. Recorded with a MixPre 6 II with 2 Sennheiser MKH 8020s concealed in a rucksack on my back.
