Recordist's notes

Wonderful aquatic sounds in this bay. You can hear the creaking of the ferry gently moving by the wharf, and occasionally thunder of the trains on the tracks which is just behind the bay. There is a hissing sound, more so in the right hydrophone, which is not coming from the mics (I had them at equal gain and also the hydrophone hiss doesn't sound like this), I'm not sure what it is. https://soundcloud.com/jeremyhegge http://jeremyh.bandcamp.com/
