Sound of a large, long, mooring rope fastened to a large cleat, holding a ferry boat at a dock on san francisco bay. Recorded with a sony mz-rh1 mini disc and unmodified panasonic wm-61 electret condenser microphone capsules.
Last night i took out my handy-dandy little tascam dr-07 and recorded the irritating bark of the dog next door. There are crickets and, occasionally, another more distant dog that is heard.
