On the top of the mountain, the wind is howling in the old installation of the ski station of Chacaltaya, Bolivia. The station was the highest in the world, and stops a few years ago, because of the smelting of the ice (du to global warming).
The teleski cable and tube is still there and the wind sing in it! :-)

Merci pour tous ces partages de sons très inspirants. Voici un court-métrage poétique dans lequel je l'ai utilisé. https://youtu.be/S7e9u311ksM?si=myGIrtIPxTEzZxLU (et c'est loin d'être le premier... j'ai pris beaucoup de retard dans les remerciements)

this sound is incredible! using it as ghostly wind for a 20min audio version of my docu-poem called:
"the haints of the Jesús María visit their insurance agent at the hospital, before it became a penitentiary, before it became condo"
should be published June 2021 online Breakwater Review. thanks for the soundscape
