Second Hand Memory with Poet Hai-Dang Phan - Southeast Asia Crossroads Podcast

The sounds are compiled entirely from Hanoi-based field recordings of car horns, a hammer, a blow torch, two songs from a trip, a poetry event, and random sounds from television. The drums come from tapping the walls of my hotel room. The only exception is the bass line which is a car horn converted into midi.
