Mysterious Recording 2

Remember the little story about mysterious recordings? Well, this time, another sound has been creeping into my music recordings. It is not quite as subtle as the other mysterious sound... and actually not at all quite so mysterious either!

For several weeks now, a stag party has been going on...literally... There’s free roaming, semi-wild donkeys running around in the wilderness surrounding the ‘Green Machine’ (my little, solar powered studio).


Usually, they go about their business quietly. Right now, their business is fighting, braying and running around like crazy. Several males are competing for the females in heat, during the day AND throughout the night! Blood, bite marks, even broken legs and a lot of conceptions are the results of all this.

...That AND of course several re-takes I had to do because of the noise. If only they could be taught to bray in tune...
