## Resource

"A constantly shifting atmospheric track that interplays with a wildlife field recording of grunting hippos. The intention behind this track was to layer gently microtonal hypnotic sounds with the insects as a rhythmic underlay and the hippos' growls blended in as if they were sniggering." Hippos in Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda reimagined by Michael Agar.
