This is a series of binaural recordings in Berlin. I capture everyday life at specific places in Berlin with my binaural in-ear-mics, so when played back through headphones you experience a surround effect that can sound almost as real as in real life, if your ears are close to the shape of my ears. 

Enjoy!

This is a binaural recording of rain on a balcony in Berlin (Wedding).
The first in the series of many binaural recordings.

It's a chilly afternoon in May. You can hear the drops falling on the metal shelf to your right. In the background you can hear the birds singing and the cars driving over a wet road. Occasionally an airplane passes by.

Best with headphones!

This is the second binaural field recording in my podcast series Aureality.

I'm still having problems with the wind, so it's not easy to get outside recordings without wind sounds. You may briefly hear them in the beginning, sorry for that.

In this you can experience the ride with the fairly empty U9 from Osloer Str. to Turmstr. 
This was recorded on the 2nd of May at 10 a.m.

A teaser for an upcoming episode, recorded in the Atrium of the Technische Universität Berlin. You can hear a piano playing in the center of the atrium below, you're located at the top level of it.

In this one you step into the St. Marie's Church on the Alexanderplatz. It's quiet silent there and the sound has a long decay. Inside the church are many ornaments and statues, it looks quite beautiful even if you are not a religious person. It has also a remarkable organ. Maybe, I'll make a recording during a concert there.

I'm also glad to hear any feedback from you, what did you like or what should I do better? 
And what would you like to hear next?

This time you wander through a crowded shopping mall, called Alexa, on the Alexanderplatz. Arriving through the main entrance you rise from level to level and traverse the long halls, and arrive at the food court, where you hear how dishes are being prepared. Then you move down again and exit through the back entrance.
