Recordist's notes

This recording was taken in my backyard at my house in Isla Vista. To record this sound I held the recorder high up off the cliff and over the ocean. This was recorded at 8:30 pm in order to hear the waves crash against the cliff, if you listen carefully you can even hear my roommates in our living room talking to each other. This represents the sound of a relaxing and "chill" night in IV listening to the waves with your housemates after a long day of school.
