This is the tail end of a recording of a rainstorm made from the balcony of a flat in Prague. The percussive sounds of the water drops are slowly augmented by the birds singing. But throughout the recording are the ever present sounds of machines: automobile tires on the wet pavement below and the fading in and out of a plane flying overhead.
