Geotag Icon Soundscape: Sahara wind

audio, soundscapes posted by listentoafrica on Jul 22nd, 2009

If the sounds section of the website has been a bit quiet of late, it’s because pedalling through the Sahara has been anything but. Wind. Almost constant wind. And, even though it’s meant we haven’t been able to record any birds here, we’ve learned to love this sound; it’s usually a tailwind. This is the sound of the wind blowing through a pile of rocks that marked a junction between a sand track and the main road.

Recorded on: 9th July 2009, 20:10 local time.
Location: The Sahara, Western Sahara (view on map)
