Recordist's notes
Inside Yokohama Chintown in the early evening. People selling a pand bear looking toy that walks battery driven while continously playing the happy birthday melody. Here the toy is fixed with a tiny rope at a filled water bottle and is urged to walk around it. A kind of chinese torture I guess. international city scapes - topographic field recordings and social ambiences
