Recordist's notes

Recorded on a Tascam DR-05x There are so many reasons to love this walkway which I will get into when I record along it again. But this spot in particular is overlooked by an abandoned factory, with a tunnel covered completely in all sorts of graffiti that seems to change every tine I go for a walk here. In the recording you can hear the drip from the moisture that has collected on the tunnel's ceiling, the traffic overhead, and the strange conversations that people have as they walk by.
