Edinburgh was one of the more amazing places I have ever been and staying with my friend and former musical colleague was amazing. The night we got to Edinburgh we stayed up till 5am and due to a bit of jet lag and a lot of whiskey we slept in till 5pm the next day. Mr.Pitts took us out on the town and one of his friends related to our sleep-through-the-day ordeal, she said “I think Edinburgh was made for sleeping” so here is my little track featuring a sample of street sounds the morning evening we woke up.

I hope to make one of these for each town we visited. Hopefully I can follow through for once.

I debated wether or not to upload a photo with this post since the snapshots are supposed to be audio… but I did anyways. I love taking pictures and I have for as long as I can remember. More and more tho I am aware of how visually literate our culture is and how illiterate we are when it comes to sound. With that in mind I have started trying to take “snapshots” with my digital recorder more often. I want to see if in 20 years they describe events, places, people etc as well as photos do now.

It just so happens these first ones are musical, i’ll try to add more atmospheric/environmental ones later.

We just got back from salvation mountain and we got to meet leonard who built/builds it.

leonard, salvation mountain

He sang us a song he wrote in his “igloo” which you can find on that flickr set. I think the accoustics of this recording describe it nicely.

Later that evening my friends saw a small owl by the shore of the salton sea, and decided to play a song for it, the owl flew away when disturbed by the train that runs right by the camp ground.
