Field Recording

Posted on April 19, 2012 by previous-student

Thursday at 6:15 in a Monroe practice room.

You can hear my singing group practicing.  We are singing in Hebrew.  We are  also trying to work in the guitar and some of us really do not remember the music, so it doesn’t sound as good as usual. In the beginning you can also hear a few people talking.

Sounds Heard: A stick being poked into a Styrofoam food box repeatedly and at different speeds and rhythms.  The TV is also interestingly distorted in the background.  At one point, a friend yells “Yahoo!”, and then another says “Hello, Mr. Jackhammer” in response to the annoying noise of the poking stick.
