Raindrops on the roof
Jul 20, 07:45 AM
The recording was made from the window of my room in an Aks Sado emergency residence for sound artists in the village of Ulugbek, a suburb of Tashkent. At the moment of this recording I have been in emigration for 2 months, and after the initial inspiration upon arrival in Uzbekistan, I again fell into a depressive state and time seemed to stand still for me.
For me, as a person who has lived in Siberia all my life, it is very unusual to hear drops in mid-December, when in my native Novosibirsk there are already meter-long snowdrifts and the temperature is within -20 degrees at that moment.
Recorded by Vladimir Bocharov.
Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
