The audio begins with the distinct sounds of an outdoor environment, perhaps a campus, where the distant chatter of students and the occasional chirp of a bird can be heard. The main focus, however, is on the sound of a rusty drawer being opened. This sound is captured using a ZoomH2nXY, emphasizing the grating, metallic scrape that resonates in an almost percussive manner. The drawer seems to resist, its rusted components stubbornly maintaining their grip until finally relenting with a creak. The audio was recorded at Leuphana University on December 2, 2013, adding a touch of history to the everyday soundscape. The noise of the rusty drawer becomes a unique musical note, a stark contrast to the soft, ambient noises of the university's outdoor environment.
