Recordist's notes
I remember putting my ears against this tower a few months ago and have been wanting to record it since but couldn't as I was waiting for one of my contact microphones to be repaired and to be delivered. There was a problem with the postage and the first microphone never arrived after two months. Another was sent two weeks ago and I finally received it yesterday, along with two XLR impedance adaptors, so I am able to use my contact mics and hydrophones again! Recorded with two JRF contact microphones (c-series) into a Tascam DR-680. soundcloud.com/jeremyhegge jeremyh.bandcamp.com/
