bicycle belles








In honor of the arrival of summer, here's a short I made a couple summers ago in search of one of my favorite sounds of the season: the twinkle of a bicycle bell along the boardwalk.

It was early one morning in Ocean City, New Jersey when I set out to record on the boardwalk. I brought along two young girl friends on the hunch they would make the venture interesting. And, listening back I'm reminded that sometimes the best thing you capture on tape is the moment when things suddenly go awry.








Listen to the clip.
