['steel pan', 'tuning', 'percussion', 'rhythm', 'tropical sound', 'crackle']
This is a recording of the steel pan tuning process. The performer repeatedly hits different parts of the steel pan to check if the tuning is correct. The instrument gives off a tropical sound. There is an irritating crackle sound coming from the recording. If it were not for this noise, the piece could be sampled for use in beat-making.
