Various Artists - Recorded in the field by… CD [Gruen033] $17.60 (€13.75)
(OUT OF STOCK
Why?)
Label: Gruenrekorder Notify Me (What is this?)
On ‘Recorded In The Field By…’ there are nineteen tracks by well-known people such as Chris Watson and Yannick Dauby, to lesser known ones as Derek Holzer, Dronaement, [sic] to the majority of people I never heard of as Aaron Ximm, Dallas Simpson, Gabi Schaffner, Maksim Shentelev and people behind the label such as Lasse-Marc Riek and Costa Gröhn. Each of the pieces is described in the booklet, which is probably the nicest thing about it. It gives the listener the idea that it’s not just a random set of recordings, but actually a part of a bigger whole, cut out and made into a composition. Which is nice, since I believe all of these pieces have no electronic treatment afterwards. Besides the usual wind and water recordings, there is also a short piece of children singing or the tunnel sounds behind the Niagara Waterfalls. All in all quite a nice compilation.

Customer Reviews:
On 2007-11-14 00:00:00, 'Don Poe, EAR/Rational Staff Reviewer' gave the following review:
This is a really diverse field recording disc - my favorite track was a recording of a gangway at night - some massively big metal booms - That held my interest and made me notice. Other tracks here are more of the ambience direction - night time recordings of lakes with bugs, frogs and so on. One track, the very first one, has a woman singing, obviously very happy, but odd to find on a field recording as I normally think of nature, but someone singing in their kitchen is just as valid! There is also a cute recording - very short! - of a kid at a public recital singing. Then, it goes straight into a recording near Niagra Falls that sounds like water hitting a large sheet of metal, or air escaping from a valve. As I said, very diverse!
