20080528.forest.wind.blackbird.flac

Spring pine forest ambiance, with birds (Great-Tit, Blackbird and Azure-winged Magpie) and wind on trees. except for the Great Tit this perspective of the forest is not joyful. Actually it may sound even sinister as the Blackbird is making the characteristic 'questioning' call only, and the Magpie sounds quite threatening too. Makes you remember there is life, but also death going on there. Sennheiser MKH30+MKH60 into Shure FP24 and Edirol R09 recorder. Originally recorded at 24 bit, downsampled and mixed to mid-side stereo with Voxengo VST MS plugin. Recorded near Hinojos, S Pain (involuntary yet meaningful typo I did!) around 11AM under a partly overcast sky and with a temperature low for this site (around 19C)
