Recordist's notes
Recorded on: ZOOM H1 The address is named after local warehouses of building materials. As the name suggests, you can almost always hear the sounds of construction, drills, cutters, or falling metal. Also, a local often sings here when passing by. It was recorded from the window of a local, so the tapping of a keyboard and a cat can sometimes be heard on the recording. (The recording was created as part of a project for a diploma thesis on Brno's soundscape.)
