Fred Gales
Fred Gales is an anthropologist, ethnomusicologist and radio maker who founded Sound Reporters, an Amsterdam label and production company for ethnomusicology, sound art and musical archaeology active since the 1980s.

Sound Reporters issued it on tape, and Villa Lontana Records in Rome later edited it for its first vinyl release.
