Escape is at Hand wind tunnel - Gusthepolarbear12 - 12-19-2009

I dont regularily smoke pot but when I did I listened to Escape at Hand... and it was the first time I ever realized the wind sounds at the beggining of the song. They get more intense and it was all I could hear at the time haha, has anyone not realized the sound because now when I listen to it I can hear it really obviously.

I actually have always noticed that.
It's real and it's spectacular.

Haha it keeps going throughout the song but I found it so weird I never heard it until I was stoned. It's like a hidden gem haha

Just found this by accident. An old interview with Gord Sinclair, where he describes, among many other things, how the "wind tunnel" was created. Pretty cool...
