Turns out the boat yard at 43rd Street and 5th Avenue jams with the wind to make some truly wonderful tribal sounds.
As I walked alongside the lake near the docks, I heard these metal beats and clangs that sounded like a wind chime coming from a distance. I began walking towards the sounds and found that it was the sail-less boats' poles and chords being blown by the wind.
In a public bathroom near the lake on Kennedy Drive and 44th Street, a loose drain cap spins dry.
This sound was made by spinning a drain cap inside a bathroom sink that had no running water and was completely dried out. It almost sounds like a winter wind due to the soft grinding of the cap and steel sink.
On top of a parking garage at 42nd Street and 8th Avenue, an aeroplanecopter flew over my head.
I walked to the top of a parking garage to try and capture some large scale soundscapes, aside from a few cars driving by, there wasn't much going on. Minutes later, however, a plane flew overhead and left sounds of a helicopter which then eased into a plane in flight.
Someone threw away Kenosha's soundscape in a trash can on Washington Rd. and 13th Avenue.
Near the train tracks a trash can sat quietly until I placed the mics inside it, which made the city come to life in an eerie way, like an industrial ghost town.
Listen to the bleeps and beeps of the equipment at 39th Street and 5th Avenue.
At a playground on the beach, there was this merry-go-round-esque piece of equipment that did not spin. I placed the mics under the belly of the metal structure and began banging away at it, my hands hurt like hell, but the vibrant sounds were worth it.
