This recording is the engine starting and idling of a 1980s ford ltl 9000 diesel semi tractor. In the middle you hear the truck door slam shut. Recorded with a rode ntg3 and a zoom f8 field recorder.
Semi-urban ambience recorded using samson go mic. Sounds of wind, drizzle (light rain), vehicle horn, birds chirping and woodcutting can be heard in distance.
The sound of summer in japan. Surrounded by cicadas everywhere in the quiet grounds of sanno hie jinja in akasaka, tokyo i recorded this with 4 mics. Mixed it down and ran it through a compressor/limiter.
