Whale Bay 27-07-06

Whale Bay is up by Tutukaka , (yes that is a real name) A very beautiful part of the "far north", we love those simple names here in New Zealand! This recording is of the stream that flows into the sea , you can hear the waves breaking in the background and It is a single take with no overdubs or edits. http://www.sugarloaf.co.nz...

Mt Maunganui

This week I traveled around the middle of the North Island for work. We had a couple of days in Mt Maunganui that I was looking forward too , mainly because my kids used to live there and we spent some good times on the beach and even managed to climb "the mount" (as locals call it) one brave xmass day. Well, this trip wasn't so great due to the fact that my hotel had construction going on next door from 6.30am till 7pm. I won't name the hotel in order to protect the innocent , but here's what I...

Dumpster Removal

Here's something you don't hear every day.... My neighbours had been having a bit of a tidy up and this is the truck picking up the bin. I like the rhythmic nature of the sounds in this one , after a while the gentle "pulsing" is relaxing. (PS: I'm living back in Auckland at the moment) ...

Ellerslie R8 01-01-08

Imananabaa wins the Railway Classic (R8) at Ellerslie on New Years Day, as heard from my house. This is probably the last recording from outside my place as I'm moving down to Christchurch for a while. If all goes well I should have some recordings from far away places here in the future but don't expect any new postings for a few months. ...

Those of you that have visited the beaches in the upper North Island know that they can be very rough one day, beautiful and serene the next.

James comes home 26-07-06

James my neighbour arriving home after work. He's got a new car since this recording btw. (A ford fiesta now incase you're wondering) I was chatting to him today, something that is difficult at the best of times due to his limited english. Anyway, turns out him and the family are moving out into a bigger house. Not surprising really, the block of units I live in have only 2 bedrooms , a small lounge , and to make things worse for him and his wife they have two teenage daughters and only one bath...

Branston Intermediate: Haka

Here's a dummies guide to Haka , the most concise I could find and covers everything. (from wikipedia again). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haka Although the use of a haka by the All Blacks has made one type of haka familiar, it has led to misconceptions. Haka are not exclusively war dances, nor are they only performed by men. Some are performed by women, others by mixed groups, and some simple haka are performed by children. Haka are performed for various reasons: for amusement, as a hearty wel...

You can hear the fireworks in the distance from the Alexander Park Guy Fawkes celebrations as well as my neighbours reliving their youth.... It's kind of ironic that we celebrate a failed 17th century catholic terrorist in these modern times don't you think? For more on the history of this event: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes_Night In case you're wondering, this years event was held a saturday night so that families could attend.

Derek Holzer: Environmental Overlay

A recording put together by Derek Holzer of http://soundtransit.nl The sounds used in this piece were selected from the archives of SoundTransit.nl, a collaborative, online community dedicated to field recording and phonography. Each shares some aspect of travel–whether by train, boat, airplane or motorbike–with the others, and they have been mixed into a continuous soundscape to be overlayed on top of the existing ambience of the Eindhoven Centraal Station at a matching level.

Lunlun Zou: Dreams of different houses

Lunlun from the Many Hands Collective (1995) , this is called "dreams of different houses" and was one of those "she's got an hour free, can you record something please?" moments. Very simple really, she's a great musician and that makes it so much easier. I'd never heard or seen one of these before so here's my first attempt at recording the gu zheng , have a read about Lunlun here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunlun_Zou or her myspace page http://www.myspace.com/lunlunzou...

Have a look at < www.manyhands.co.nz > for more information on them and If you ever get a chance, check them out live.

Dawn#2 02-12-07 Ellerslie , Auckland.

Thanks to the magic of protools and being able to tell it how long to record for , here's 5.30am today. Thankfully I was exercising my tonsils! Just a reminder for those that may not know , I live in the suburbs and around 1km (3/4 mile) from the main highway north & south. Hope that explains the traffic rumble in the distance and the odd bang or crash you may hear in my recording. I'm not going to edit it out as this is what it sounded like at that moment in time....

Every morning for the last 2 weeks he (or she) starts singing at around 4.30am then disappears only to come back at sunset and continue singing till around 9.30pm. Anyway, back to the story...

As sung by the South New Brighton Primary School, again recorded at the 1999 Schools Cultural Festival in Christchurch.

Michaels Ave Reserve: frogs/pukekos/ducks @ 2100hrs , 20-11-07

So , what does a Location Sound Recordist do to relax after a hard day on set? He goes to the local park and records frogs.... I thought about editing out the cars but my recordings are of a "space in time." Sometimes that means cars and other distractions , I'm not after a clinical super-clean sound but more of a "slice of life." It's just what I do. The loud squawk you hear at the start is a pukeko (as shown in the photo) I have no idea what sort of frogs they are and have never heard them be...

Te Henga (Bethells) sand dunes

Here's another track recorded at Bethells beach , this time in the sand dunes. I was looking for a good spot to listen to the birdlife (being sand dunes there's not many birds around) when I came across some foliage that had these guys singing away. It's one of my favourite recordings at the moment and I think you'll understand why when you have a listen. Remember, when at the beach take only memories and leave only footprints.

Te Henga (Bethells Beach) is a coastal community located in the north of the North Island, New Zealand. The Māori name Te Henga, meaning sand, originally applie...

Another track from the 1999 Christchurch Schools Cultural Feastival. The South Island is the larger of the two major islands of New Zealand, the other being the more populous North Island. (We're pretty good with names don't you think!) The Māori name for the South Island, Te Wai Pounamu, meaning "The Water/s of Greenstone" (greenstone being jade), possibly evolved from Te Wāhi Pounamu which means "The Place Of Greenstone". The island is also known as Te Waka a Māui which means "Māui's Cano...

Kepa Bush Reserve 17-11-07

Kepa Bush Reserve lies on the slopes of Purewa Creek that flows past Orakei Basin into Hobson Bay. The 13.6 ha reserve is a peaceful pocket of native bush day or night, dazzling with bird life during the day and serene with glow-worms in the gully near the main entrance at night. The reserve honours the memory of Te Rangihiwinui Kepa (Major Kemp) who fought for government forces against Te Kooti, Titokowaru and Tamaikowha during the land wars of the 1860s. In 1841 the crown bought the area from ...
