Record created next to the entrance of the mill, just before the machinery that separates twigs, branches and leaves from the remaining olives for pressing. The prevailing sound is that of the conveyor belt for the olives, which pours out directly into the tank which loads the large stone wheel; occasionally you can hear some short and dry sounds of branches sheared by the machine.

Recorded with a Zoom H4n.
