WARNING! Be careful when you listen to this with headphones! Turn down the volume! It gets very loud.
This is a fast freight train passing by in just  a few meters distance. I was surprised by the opportunity to record this and didn't manage to adjust mic gain a.s.o.

20170606 Freight Train JBSON Ur.WAV

Raw recording with Zoom H2N in sourround mode. Way home from Neustadt to Mannheim. Typical howling of the automatic transmission drive and the squeaking wheels in the narrow curves of the tracks when leaving Ludwigshafen main station.

20180527 SBAHN JBSON.MP3

Typical soundscape in the transition zone between rural and suburban areas in Germany. A mixture of natural and anthropogeneic sounds, mainly birds and traffic. Recorded at about 9 a.m. with Zoom H2N in XY-mode.
