Recordist's notes
Recorded with an H5 portable microphone on a pedestrian pathway close to a busy roadway. The metal tapping at the beginning was a painter on a ladder, which was later followed by regular car and walking sounds. It was an extremely windy day, so it wasn't optimal conditions for recording.
