Donaghy's Hill

This track was recorded in the Franklin River National Park in Tasmania. I accidentally forgot to take my Gameboy with nanoloop mono out of my backpack so it came along for the ride as well.
At a small walk, called Donaghy's Hill, I was inspired by the bird calls and captured a low quality field recording from my mobile phone.
A simple loop from nanoloop mono was recorded via the Gameboy speaker into the phone microphone.
Whilst I have been holidaying, Australia has been burning. As a result of the Government's inaction on climate change, and desire to cut costs wherever possible, communities are being destroyed, countless living organisms are being killed, and the government is relying upon volunteer efforts to help keep the fires under control. Spending time in the beautiful untouched wilderness of the national parks in Tasmania, some of which were nearly flooded to make dams, reminded me of what has been fought for to keep, and how we must continue that fight to preserve the world going forth.
