\"Our harmonica playing friend Sonny told Tina that \"the elementary school had installed new playground equipment with an outdoor xylophone\".
Our kids went to LSE long ago, I taught art for five years there not too long ago, and I drove up yesterday to check this musical gift to the community for myself. beside the colorful (appx 2-octave) xylophone are two sturdy bongo-like plastic drums. A couple of the 'keys' on the xylo are a bit muted...possibly having been bolted-on a bit too tightly.
The slight concavity of the playground below the brick back walls of the school and the nearby boxy loading dock, creates a natural echo.
I set a ZOOM Q2HD handheld stereo camera on a tripod nearby to catch an audio/video source track, which I cloned & converted online into a WAV fil; then mixed a hard-clipped and drop-tuned version together along with the un-modifed live recording, deliberately out of synch time-wise.\"
