Located on the Tanneron Ridges, the Forêt Du Grand Duc covers 90 hectares and offers beautiful views over the Mediterranean Sea, the Bay of Cannes and the Lérins Islands. 

This recording was made at 6am, about 45 minutes before sunrise. We hear nightingales, robins, blue tits, blackbirds and other common woodland birds.

Many thanks to Thomas Jackson Park for remixing "Drones" using his generative soundscape approach (check out Generative Soundscape Radio).

Now that the insects, birds and field recordists have a bit more peace and quiet during the lockdown, I have added some additional sounds.

3 Whiskered (disquiet0451)

Sunday night guitar loops. Unlike other recent guitar loop experiments I've tried out, this one has a live component. After the first minute or so (which I'd already layered in advance of hitting record), new material is added and then later deleted. This setup consists of electric guitar, reverb pedal, overdrive, and looper, plus an eBow on occasion for those extended notes. After recording (amp to phone, live in the room), I used Adobe Audition to implement a fade in and a fade out, and for a little additional reverb.
