Like a bear following salmon for sustenance, I followed local eastsiders for some sweet sound clips.

The whole idea came from field tests in which I sat in my car with the mics sticking out of the windows in order to pick up on my environment. I over heard some very inappropriate, and sometimes quite personal information being passed around. Then it hit me that these microphones are quite invasive and if these people realized I was listening to them they would be pretty embarrassed. So I thought to myself over hearing a homeless man beg for change; "Matt how can you get more invasive?" It was then that I realized I was gonna have to follow, maybe even stalk people around town in order to get some good clips. It was not my intention to hunt them such as a hungry bear might, but more as if that bear simply wanted to be your buddy. By setting my drift up in such a way I left my path completely up to chance and by how others around me interacted with their environment. While most of these clips are found on the eastside they all have their own unique flavor. I force all to ENJOY!

Listen out:
Mic check ONE TWO at bayshore for 0:52

I'm very familiar with BIRD LAW, and lake park for 1:09

School BUS SINGER at Riverside for 1:04

Talk it out:
It does feel good, on the (w)HOLE and on Bartlett for 2:08

Ch-Ch-Ch-BIBLE STUDY? At Walgreen's for 1:11?

It's just like CHRISTMAS LIGHTS for 0:50
