When I pushed play, I thought I was hearing State of the Re:Union host Al Letson. The narration was just spot on (with a couple of some over-enunciated bits that I only noticed on a third listen). This piece had some great natural sound, and as a former piano player, there's something so pleasant about a plinky piano. Seamless tracking moved this piece along (I'm hesitant to say story, because it was more of a captured moment), and overall it was a pleasant, simple listen. I'll never get sick of hearing the theme from Jurassic Park! I'd like to hear something more substantive (other arts and culture-related, perhaps) from this producer, because his micing, narration, and production skills are great, and his speaking voice is lovely. This was a nice little peek into someone's secret world, and one I'd be happy to visit again.
