Introduction
Afternoon Traces is a collection of field recordings from various locations and countries. All of the recordings were produced in the late afternoon. What Lynn is trying to create is a very loose narrative that connects the places with sound. These tracks mirror each other in a certain way and are the reflection of particular afternoon moods. Locations include Nanjing, Lianyungang, Normandy, London, and Maryland.
