Singing/Rain

Ive become a little obsessed with the Gouldian positioning of voice(s) against noise. Here is yet another recording with this arrangement, this time recorded from our apartment window. The voice in this instance sounds like it might be a Karaoke or pub singer. After making the recording I wandered the streets to locate the source and my ears led me happily astray to a free outdoor short-film screening. The film showing when I arrived had music by Aphex Twin, Brian Eno and John Foxx!

Oh - the animal calling towards the end of the recording is, by the way, a racoon.
