underwater recording made in an harbour in Australia. The hydrophone was homemade using a piezo transducer placed inside a mustard jar then hooked up to a small pre-amp circuit and then plugged into a portable DAT. You can hear the distinctive underwater 'crackling sound' as well as a boat squeaking against a tire.
