AMBIENT SOUNDS / NO MUSIC

fieldrecording

Date: 2006; Time: -; Location: Berlin; Length: 1'38

Two field recordings of traffic sound from Ackerstraße/Bernauer Straße and from Ackerstraße/Torstraße, Berlin. 

Both recordings are radically changed in duration and in tone pitch. First, traffic sounds are replayed in quick-motion. After 30 seconds, it starts to fade over to traffic sounds in slow-motion. 

These modifications are meant to highlight some rythmical patterns in the "behaviour" of internal combustion engines across the city, on a "macroscopic" as well as on a "microscopic" level. 

At the end you can hear the sound of a German ambulance siren replayed very slowly (at the very end you will hear a short bit in normal pitch).

Meadow, Münsing - crickets, crows, wind bending the grass

Hello from Ubud, 
In this soundscape, I give you an authentic feeling how the walking street at Jalan Gootama at evening sounds like. 
In the beginning, it was a little difficult to find the right spot to get a nice clean outdoor restaurant sounds but after I walked up and down the road I found a hidden spot between two big walls. In front of the alley a perfect situated restaurant. 
I turned the recorder on and could capture some really fun sounds. You will listen to a little cricket somewhere around me what creates this nice evening vibe. 
Several motorbikes passing by and pedestrian walking by. 
From the restaurant or cafe itself, you have a lot of walla, laughing and people chatting sounds in different languages. This creates a really cool mix of sounds. 
The waiters and guests moving plates around and you can hear the sound of the cutlery being placed too. 
I think we have some really cool sounds recorded! Enjoy

Koloniestraße, Berlin - Hämmern und Schweißen auf dem Schrottplatz, Passanten. Manche benutzen diesen schmalen Weg als Abkürzung zwischen der Kolonie- und der Holzstraße. Abgesehen von den Arbeitern auf dem Schrottplatz kann man auch einige der Männer hören, die sich vor der nahen Moschee abholen lassen, nachdem die Messe gerade zuende ist.
