Sand ruined some of my equipment, but it was worth it! I've been hiking through fantastic mineral landscapes and slept under the stars. Desert is dead silent at night - something I didn't expect - but when wind blows, every single object starts to sing wonderfully!

A very silent place...until the wind blowsSand makes beautiful pictures, and nice scratches on my recording equipment too.The Camel Driver Shortcut. (Camels are wise)The Tourist route. (Tourists are crazy)There has been a lot of rain, earlier in the season.

Thank you!
Sampling sessions abroad are only possible because of the generosity of the people making donations to this website. May those contributors be assured of my deepest gratitude! If you would like to foster the recording of new sounds, please support or keep supporting my work. Stéphane
