Recordist's notes

Tram ride in the heart of the old city of Ghent. The vehicle is crowded. Very difficult to record (I had to do it three times) because of a good amount of infrabass. However, the route is interesting considering that the vehicle has difficulty with tight curves. Journey from Gravensteen to Van Nassaustraat.
