Recording birdsong at 6am on a woodland campsite in Devon this April was a rewarding experience. The early morning stillness offered an ideal backdrop for capturing the natural soundscape, with the chorus of birds becoming increasingly vibrant as dawn broke over the trees.
Using the Sony PCM-M10's built-in microphones, I was able to achieve clear, immersive recordings despite the limitations of onboard mics in such an environment. The compact design and low noise floor of the PCM-M10 proved advantageous, allowing for unobtrusive placement within the campsite and quick setup.
A highlight of the session was the distinctive tapping and drumming of woodpeckers, which added a dynamic rhythmic element to the recordings. Two recordings were merged to produce the final recording presented here.

Bristol Cathedral Gaia Exhibition Choir - 27th Oct 2024
On a crisp autumn day, I visited the historic Bristol Cathedral with my family to experience Gaia exhibition, Luke Jerram’s suspended rotating Earth model.
The air was alive with the gentle murmurs of visitors, their voices blending into a soothing hum as they moved through the space, captivated by the installation.
The Gaia sculpture was stunning representation of our planet, suspended in mid-air, and after a while a choir began rehearsing for an upcoming performance. Their voices filled the air.
Recordings made using Sony PCM-M10 build-in mics.
