Junglecast 6: The Ruined Suburbs, part 1

June 3, 2005 - 10:31pm

Hosts: Nicco Mele, Dave Pentecost

Series: Junglecasts


No, we're not out of the jungle yet. In fact, we're going off the tourist route, straight into the tropical forest around the Maya city of Palenque, Mexico. We pass through the ruined suburbs that Dr. Ed Barnhart and his team mapped over a three year period. A terrain of immense trees and collapsed labyrinths that await study and excavation.

This is another "soundseeing" podcast from the Gringo Collapse tour, March 2005. It'll get you into the jungle - the next one will get you back out.

Music:

Qu'ran, David Byrne and Brian Eno, "My Life in the Bush of Ghosts"

Nagoya Marimbas, by Steve Reich
