Storm season in Singapore
Sep 16, 2023, 11:01 AM
"Residing in Singapore during its rainy season allowed us to experience frequent thunderstorms, yielding a rich archive of natural sounds. En route to Decathlon from the Ju Koon MRT station, a distant rumbling caught our attention. Armed with my audio gear - a Zoom F8n, DPA 4060, and Zoom H3 VR for ambisonic recordings, I seized the opportunity to capture the impending storm.
Stationed at a bridge's end, I recorded the rhythmic patter of rain on the roof, its subsequent fall onto the street, and the encroaching thunder. The soundscape evolved, introducing distant thunder echoes, explosive lightning bolts, large thunder cracks and rolls, and fluctuating rumble intensities."
