Recording #4 - Planes



I like the sound of planes. While many people are scared of flying, I enjoy it thoroughly. As I was walking, I stumbled upon a particularly silent area in the street. I stopped to listen to the silence, because usually some ambience was present, when immediately the noise of a plane could be heard. I began recording, because I thought it was really cool that the plane was so faint, yet could be heard because of the silence. I ended up making a note on my original map, siting this recording as "Nearly Unadulterated Plane." A car noise appears a ways into the recording, otherwise, it's a pretty serene recording. This recording appears as the second plane noise in this audio clip.

The first plane that appears on the recording was an accidental recording. I must have let my recorder record without knowing, or I was meaning to record something else and this appeared. After reviewing this, I really liked the jet noise, and decided to do the same thing I did with the lawn mowers. I melded the jet (first recording) with the regular plane (second recording) together and I thought it turned out very natural sounding. If you like plane noises, look no further!

This was recorded between 8:50 and 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, July 1st, 2008.
