Huge, slamming gong, very long and unprocessed mostly but slightly cut off at the end. "recorded with two akg c3000s in x/y format, through a replica of an old british tube pre-amp".
Hitting the side of a metal wheelbarrow with an axe. Could be used for a car crash, metal dumpster, all kinds of large metallic impacts. Recorded with a rode videomic pro into a zoom h5 recorder.
A butane lighter being flipped close, making a sharp "ching" sound with a high pitched metallic tone as it reverberates. Works well for closing a zippo also.
Second recording of the clanging metal joint on a highway overpass, captured from inside a trolley car (you can hear the jumbled voices of conversing passengers).
Portion of a recording alongside a passing train in which certain cars screech as they pass a point on the rails, making a metallic sing similar to that of an electric butcher's saw. Background rattle is an idling diesel truck at the intersection.
This recording is a 96khz recording with a contact microphone attached to the steel cable that connects the mast to the deck, in a small whale research boat in the island of dominica.
The rumbling roar of an approaching freight train then the whistle and passing cars. Some good screeching from the metal. The train passes and fades. Recorded pretty close but with trees in between.
Sound through a vent while contractors did demolition on the bathroom upstairs. Has a nice "eavesdropping" quality, a vibe like you're hearing the work from another area. Lots of hammering and debris of all sizes falling on the ground, include some good thuds. Recorded on a tascam-dr-40 and cleaned up in audacity. Production-now. Com - shout-outs welcome.

Banging on a geometric metal sculpture with my hand and recording the long reverberations with a vintage sony f-98 cardioid mic plugged into my iphone 6. I used various parts of the hand, the palm, fingernails, fist, and knuckles.
