On the Juneau Avenue Bridge.

At this point in my drift, I became completely absorbed in my sound environment. And up until this point, I had not heard anything that really sparked an interest. So the sound made by car tires rolling over the bridge took me by surprise. For part of the recording I was walking, and I made an attempt to silence my footsteps - which was not easy to do on a metal surface. When I took a break, at the east end of the bridge, I noticed a man using an electric saw in a riverside restaurant just beneath the bridge. The conrast of the high pitched drone and the low rumble turned out to be pretty interesting. Listen.
