FOLDER 8 COMMENTARY
1. Traffic sounds provide amience - the road is to the east, water fountain is directly North - almost working to mask the sounds of the cars and trucks.
2. On the path on the North side of Lost Lagoon - we encountered a family of racoons while recording, **feedback at 20sec** - peak (!) (expletive follows), footsteps of passers-by/onlookers at 1 min, traffic sounds are the keynote.
3. Children playing on both the beach and in the pool, footsteps are audible as people pass us throughout (e.g. 0:20), @ 0:30 someone asks me if we're recording the sound and proceeds to show me how quiet his motorbike is (it was electric).
4. Same location as above, the sound of a motorboat in the water provides environmental ambience.
5. Sounds of the pool still dominate, but the water is much more prominent at the wall, footsteps (sounds like flip flops) at 0:30, ambience offered by boat engine.
6. Track ID @ intro, sitting on a log at Second Beach, pool activity is distant, sounds of ocean water, sunbathers & picnic area dominate, there's a family nearby whose daughter is distinctly audible, airplane and boat sounds are apparent throughout.
