Recordist's notes

At the highway A40 that runs though the city and here into a tunnel. The sound of traffic passing by on a mild windy and sunny spring evening. An der Autobagn A 40 die durch die Stadt und hier in einen Tunnel führt. Der Klang des vorbeirauschenden Verkehrs an einem leicht windigem, sonnigem Frühlingsabend. Projekt - Stadtklang//: Hörorte - topographic field recordings and social ambiences
