Weather Report
The weather has created and shaped all our habitats. Clearly it also has a profound and dynamic effect upon our lives and that of other animals. The three locations featured here all have moods and characters which are made tangible by the elements, and these periodic events are represented within by a form of time compression.

Ol-Olool-O
A fourteen hour drama in Kenya's Masai Mara from 0500h - 1900h on Thursday 17th October 2002.
The Lapaich
The music of a Scottish highland glen through autumn and into winter during the four months of September to December.
Vatnajökull
The 10,000 year climatic journey of ice formed deep within this Icelandic glacier and its lingering flow into the Norwegian Sea.

Great effort. Field recordings from Kenya, Scotland, and Iceland very gently manipulated. Everything from lions howling to glaciers groaning. An instant classic in field recording circles upon release, and definitely one of the best titles in this genre. Bravo Touch!
