About the recording:
Six o'clock in the morning. Lo Mantang awakes: birds, people, cows, monks and at the end one of the two traktors makes noise. No cars, no trams, no noise we used to know from our western world. Enjoy this 16 minutes recorded straight out of the tent outside the Lo Mantang citywalls.
