Game Soundtrack

The piece of sound that has been created is from a memory of a past experience. It is probably fair to say that many people; people who especially live in big and busy cities have had this experience or will go through an experience similar at some point in their lives. 

The aim of the sound created is to tell the story of the experience I had. The experience I had was that I was almost run over by a car when I was walking to town. What I remember from the experience is that it was raining and quite windy and it was sometime in the afternoon. I was walking into town so that I could buy a few things and every time I go out, it’s a must that I have my iPod with me because I find it difficult going anywhere without my music. As well as having my iPod, I also find it difficult to go anywhere without my BlackBerry. Not known to me at the time, it was my BlackBerry that almost got me run over. As I was walking to town, I had my music on which was probably on full volume, if not very close. I have it that loud so that I don’t hear background noises such as cars, people chatting, the weather etc but I can never cancel out all the sounds around me so I can always hear a little bit of it even though I’m listening to my music. 

As I am walking, I came to a point where I have to cross the road but as I am doing that, I am also sending a message via BlackBerry Messenger so I am not looking at the road but at my phone. All of a sudden all I can hear is a loud car horn which frightens me and I quickly move out of the way. A good few seconds after all I can hear and feel is my heartbeat because I put my life in harms way by not paying attention to the road. After composing myself after the shock I was able to continue on my journey.
