When I first started recording sounds, I was fascinated to traffic ambiance. Something about fast vehicles whizzing by me and the accompanying noises piqued my interest! When I visited Munich in 2017, I had just begun recording for a few months with my Zoom H6. I’d been to Munich many but this was my first time genuinely listening to the city and recording it.
I had to travel to the American Embassy in Munich one day to apply for my visa. I allowed additional time to record sounds in the surrounding area. After exploring for a bit, I came across a busy intersection with heavy traffic of cars, buses, and trucks. This spot had four traffic lights with vehicles stopping and accelerating after the light switched to green. If you’re curious about the location of the soundscape, it was next to the P1 Club in Munich at the Prinzregentenstrasse.
