One of several recordings made on a walk around manhattan in june 2022. This is the junction of houston st with broadway (if i remember correctly). A lot of traffic and honking of horns.
A mediocre recording of the nyc subway, with the robot announcer saying "stand clear of the closing doors". I am releasing this sample into public domain, ignore the cc license.
I was on my way to a meeting a few doors down from this intersection and there was some nice sounds happening, it's in the late morning and so people are hard at work and moving around and doing their thing. There's some cool door chimes, trucks, traffic, random conversations, etc.
New year eve's, the clock strikes 12am janurary 1, 2012; hollywood, california. There are a few edits in this recording because of wind noise. Watch out for a loud air horn at around 2:00.
Sounds of a busy new york city playground, including children playing, parents speaking various languages, background traffic and airplanes, and an ice-cream cart. Recorded in sunset park, brooklyn, ny. May 5 2022.
On january 01, 2013 i was streaming the new years fireworks behind my window. This all ended with this firework, wich proves to be loud, but isn't quite managing it.
Recording of the 2022 new year's eve fireworks in brisbane, 8:30pm show. This version has less crowd cheers, but a higher noise floor. Recorded from the adelaide st meriton building in brisbane with a bp4025 microphone and zoom f6.
Happened upon an orchestra warming up/rehearsing inside st. Louis cathedral at jackson square in new orleans. It's that beautifully cacophonous sound of all the instruments getting into tune, some of the musicians talking (a few tourists as well).
Atmosphere just outside birmingham new street station, with luggage trolleys, footsteps and brummie accents greeting people. Recorded on an olympus ls-10 with an internal mic.
