Recordist's notes

Standing next to the River Exe in a copse of trees. Underfoot the soil is soft - washed downstream during the recent flooding. The sound of the river is occasionally obscured by the sound of the wind through the trees. Dry branches crack against each other. This was recorded using an Audio Technica BP4029. The recording device was a Roland R-26.
