The focus of this collection is clarity and detail. Rain was captured in remote parts of the jungle by leaving the recording rigs out for days at a time. The equipment was protected from direct rainfall by improvised platforms made of locally available materials such as twigs, leaves and other vegetation. As a result the soundscapes are free from the plopping sounds that raindrops would make when hitting the blimps.
This library was recorded over 2 years and 5 expeditions to tropical rainforests. It took a lot of effort and dedication to access these pristine environments. High humidity, heat, cold and mud were part of everyday work. Being swarmed on by insects, bitten by leeches, chased by an orangutan up a hill and charged at by a huge silverback gorilla were the highlights of these expeditions.
