Burdocia dawn

Description

Soundscape recorded in the early hours of the morning, from the window of a room on the first floor of a house in the Ferrara countryside, surrounded by a large green park. The recording was made using a ZOOM H1n handheld recorder with a windscreen. Many biophonic sounds can be heard: <ul> <li>pheasants;</li> <li>doves;</li> <li>fluttering and flapping sounds;</li> <li>cuckoos;</li> <li>crickets;</li> <li>frogs;</li> <li>crows and magpies</li> </ul> Other anthropophonic sounds are: <ul> <li>sounds of farm machinery in the background in the distance (mostly, I think, water pump engines extracting water from canals/ditches for irrigating fields);</li> <li>a sound of a distant plane passing by over our heads;</li> </ul> Processing: <ul> <li>Low pass filter;</li> <li>gentle denoising (ReaFIR);</li> <li>volume boost</li> </ul>
