chanting, djembe, guitar, box, summer

On June 30th I was in Cambridge for the Buskers & Street Performers Festival.There was also a march through the town to protest against the government's austerity proposals. I filmed some of this and later did some music to go with the footage.I looped the chanting, did some drumming (some on a Djembe and some tapping on my printer!) then improvised over it with a two string cigar box guitar.
