Gullfoss waterfall reimagined by AJ Born.

"The original recording contained a lot of wind noise, so the first step was to extract the sound of the Gulfoss waterfall from it. I played around with that sound of falling water, used some filters and changed speed and hight of the sound. Surprisingly I found something unexpected: The Gulfoss was singing like a bird!

To include patriotism, I have used this bird sound to create a little tune that was inspired by the Icelandic national anthem.

I have combined these different sounds with the acoustically enhanced original recording and it inserted some rewinding sections."
