The Sound of Ballykilcavan
May 30, 2020 | ELEMENT: air | audio | 1 minute read

The track starts before dawn in the woods that runs alongside the recently harvested barley fields. It’s not raining, but there’s a heavy fog and the condensation drips from the trees onto the floor of the woods. The eerie atmosphere stifles the dawn chorus, but as morning breaks, the sound of neighbouring farms and traffic starting to move comes in – along with the wind which picks up as the sun breaks through. We listen for a while before walking out into the open field.
