In August 2014, we were proud to partner with the US Cuba Artist Exchange’s people to people tour. We traveled to Cuba to collect sounds for our ongoing project The Touch of Sound, which features authentic sound recordings from around the world. Throughout our trip we encountered a vibrant country, full of history, culture, music, and especially sounds. Each location we visited had its own unique environment. Please enjoy the sonic highlights from each stop on our Cuban adventure.
