Let's end with a completely silly #AudioMo: Welcome to the sounds of 'The Pink Trombone' which is one of the more bizarre finds in recent times. A few years ago someone told me about this. If you click this site from your phone and disable your screen-reader (if applicable) you too, can have fun making some of the most ridiculous noises known to people anywhere.
Note: Do not drink and listen to this. I cannot be held responsible.

#AudioMo: Today it's a musical selection from a gig I played a few years ago as part of a #Jazz #Fusion #Quartet called Nuvorrian. We had headphone boxes for each musician as we were playing on an outdoor stage, so I took a patch-cable from the headphone box to my recorder and captured it that way.
Drums: Kwesi.
Bass: Kwesi (No not that one!)
Keys: Josh
Other keys: Myself

This recording was made on January 10, 2018, as I was on the 'plane train' at Atlanta's Hartsfield Jackson International Airport going between terminals, starting from B gates, getting off at F.
Recorded using an iPhone 8 and the Sennheiser Ambeo Smart Headset.

#AudioMo: Here's a clip from #NottingHillCarnival 2005, when my house was within the boundary of the event.
Every year I would hang microphones out of my bedroom window for the two days, set up a live-stream and let it rip.
I captured all sorts of goodness from huge crowds to sound system Rampage doing their thing, from fights with police and thrown bottles from the more shall we say, inebriated crew to the people who were there to have fun.
In this recording you can hear a passing band of drummers going down the road next to mine. They never come down my street, which is why this recording is off to the left but it's a lovely sound of good, live energy anyway.

At around 11:30 PM on June 1, 2011, my partner and I went to the 86th floor observatory of the Empire State Building. This is a (not particularly exciting) recording of us getting checked in and going from ground level to the 86th floor in an express elevator.
Once we got there, it was very windy, so that part of the recording is pretty useless, and not included here.
Recorded with an Olympus DM520 and Panasonic WM61 microphones.

In the late afternoon hours of August 5, 2010, we had a pretty gnarley summer thunderstorm coming through in Greensboro, NC. That's all well and good, but what made this funnier was the ice cream truck driving up and down the street playing Christmas tunes while all this was going on. When it played Silent Night, I lost it, because, well, it was anything but that.
I recorded this with an Olympus DM520 and Audio Technica AT-822 hanging out of a bathroom window.

#AudioMo: I was going to #Hamleys with my wife and children on Jan 13 2019 when the road was literally inundated with motorbikes. We'd just left the underground station and were walking toward the shop. The noise here is amazing, and I'm glad I was able to capture it.

On May 29, 2011, we took a trip to Lancaster, PA. While there, we visited the Strasburg Railroad, and took a ride in a car attached to the no. 89, a steam locomotive manufactured in 1910.
This is a binaural recording featuring two perspectives, made with an Olympus DM-520 and a pair of Panasonic WM-61 microphones mounted on sunglasses.

#AudioMo: I love me a good natural reverb. When I was in #Berlin, my friend Carl showed me an underpass that has some of the best natural reverb I've personally ever experienced. Welcome to this recording of #Treptower Park Underpass, Berlin, recorded with Sennheiser Ambeos on June17 2018.

On March 23, 2016, my partner and I were staying at a hotel in Stroudsberg, PA with an enclosed in-suite pool, which was only about three feet deep.
Around 2:30 AM, I couldn't sleep, so I put on a set of microphones and hung out there for a little while.
Recorded (very carefully) with an Olympus LS-14 and a pair of Sound Professionals MS-BMC3 microphones on sunglasses.
Sorry for the transcoding badness. Mastodon does that.

#AudioMo for today the 19th of #June. recorded the #sound of our drier. this is a long #recording so feel free to fast forward if you want. listen to the machine as it revs up to its full power. I don't know but when I listen to this, it reminds me on the sound of my #first #Flight. it sounds like an #Airplane taking off but then losing its power. for the record, on my first flight, the plane did not lose its power. haha! enjoy!

#AudioMo: Tuesday, Aug 24, 2021: Smaaaash!
No this wasn't a break-in, more a break-out. A window fell out of the building opposite and smashed on the floor. This was captured by my outside stream mics:

On March 12, 2011, I was (virtually) introduced to a sugar glider through a Twitter follower. The "crabbing" sound it made got me thinking about how it would sound if a mutant sugar glider went on a destructive rampage. Since I didn't have a mutant sugar glider on-hand, I did the next best thing, and this happened.
Meet Killer Sidney, the godzilla of formerly small creatures... or something like that.

Welcome to Penn Station, NYC. It's about 6:50 AM on March 3, 2019, and I'm waiting for a train to North Carolina. I recorded a few minutes of the station ambiance with my iPhone 8 and Shure MV88.

#AudioMo: Here are a collection of animal sounds from #ZSL London Zoo, recorded on May 22 and June 14 2017, respectively.
When you hear the Macaw parrots repeated, this is the second recording.

you know, if your gonna squish a flac I upload into mp3, you could do me the pleasure of letting me upload the wav so you could at least turn that lossy instead you useless jerk. sigh, #annoyed #audiomo #mastodon.
#Mastodon #audiomo #annoyed

so for #audiomo, day 18, I know I haven't posted a lot on the hashtag recently, but I found this while digging through some old files, Originally recorded with yours truly on the piano, 11/17/2015. I had to flac it to get it to upload, but have an instrumental of only hope by Mandy Moore. I've got a couple more in I'm gonna save for days 19 and 20. but enjoy. If I had the access and the room to setup, I'd probably play like this again.

#AudioMo Continuing with the idea of existing without saying much, let's go back to a Sunday afternoon in October of 2009, as I'm with my father in his 1965 Ford F100 pickup truck with a NASCAR race on the radio... Well, mostly commercials, actually.
Recorded with a Zoom H4 and it's built-in X/Y microphones.

#AudioMo: I'm on the way to Cambridge on what appears to be either an old, or just very noisy train, I'm not sure which. All I know is that the thing is clunky and sounds like it's falling to bits around me.

#AudioMo: Some time in 2001 I caught a particular episode of the British Soap #EastEnders on a VHS tape. One part stood out to me as highly amusing, so I rewound that bit and recorded it. It makes a great critical stop sound, and amuses me to this day. You might go so far as to call it a 'Critical Dot' sound, as the character who got scared by the dog is called Dot.

#AudioMo: Yesterday we had two quite lengthy thunderstorms pass through, so I took the best bangs I could find from the outside stream and put them into one file back-to-back so you don't have to listen to two hours of audio. Let's see how this goes.

#AudioMo On the afternoon of November 7, 2014, I was at Clearwater Beach, Florida, when I decided to stand in the surf with my Zoom H6 and it's X/Y microphone capsules, and recorded a few minutes of the ocean waves.
It wasn't a particularly nice day, kind of overcast, windy and a bit cold for the time of year.

#AudioMo: Welcome to the Shift R trick.
I play stuff, I shift R it, I hope it’s OK.

This is a track-stack with two Keyscape sounds, the Double Felt Grand, and the Dulcitone.
Shift R in #Logic is basically like the capture option in #Ableton, IE: even when the transport is stopped, it will capture what you recorded and add it to the focused MIDI track. Doesn't work with audio.

#AudioMo: I present a 21-minute medley from my gig last Sunday in The Camden Club in London.
A Grenadian singer called Jonathan first performed one of his own tracks, then segwayed into a variety of other tracks, all whilst the house-band consisting of drums, bass, guitar and keys, kept the music going. Jonathan was also joined by a variety of other singers throughout the recording.
#Bass: Ryan W.
#Guitar: Titus M.
#Drums: Alex D.
#Keys: Andre L

You never know when strange noises will happen in your neighborhood.
Here is a selection of some slightly unusual things I have captured over the last few years that don't quite fit the description of normal, everyday activity.

#AudioMo: The sound of a Track Stack, in which you take two or more MIDI instruments and stack them together like a musical sandwich so that the sounds combine together to form a new hole:

Here is one of my favorite field recordings from this day in 2007.
This was done with a home-made Jecklin disc, an Edirol R1, and a pair of modified Panasonic WM-61 microphones. Lots of editing to comp for broken things.
The image is somewhere between binaural and a spaced omni pair, so headphones are recommended, but it works better on speakers than binaural.
POOR DOGGY!
Starts with wind and rain, then thunder. Very loud clap at 5:46.

Today's #AudioMo is more of a #Music thing actually, and comes from #Jamulus which is an online realtime jamming tool to allow people in different places to make music with each other. In this instance, Alf, the bass player is a few hundred miles from me also in the UK, Martin (guitar) is in The Netherlands, Phil (other guitarist) is near brighton, Mag (drummer) is in Germany and I'm playing Rhodes in London.
This perspective was captured by Alf.

For today's #AudioMo, an FM band-scan from my SIHUADON D808 portable radio. I'm sitting in the garden with the sun beating down on me and it's a very nice day outside.
Capturing this recording using my #Zoom H1N recorder and a patch-cable, then editing all the nasty clicks and pops out between stations, as this radio has a very nasty habit of clicking as it picks up the next station.

I'll have a few clips for #AudioMo this month, but to start with, both clips I'm posting in a thread were actually recorded today, so apologies. This first is a game on #Steam called 'The Vale' and I'm showing about 11 minutes of game-play, complete with my phone going off in the background. I'm hopefully not spoiling it necessarily, just doing a side-quest. Maybe it will persuade some of you to give it a go. You can listen direct in your client of choice, or by using the link to the audio file, as you wish.
I shall consider this post to be day 1: https://onj.me/media/Playing_The_Vale_-_02_Jun_2023.mp3

Can't promise I'll keep on doing it every day as I'm not sure I'll have enough material but here goes my first attempt at the #AudioMo challenge: have a French talking watch found at the Braille Shop in Brussels, Belgium. It's your standard talking watch, round with its ttiny rubber buttons placed between the watch face and the wristband in the shape of the Braille letter R. In the recording the time is announced twice, then I somehow clicked through different modes like, I believe, stop watch and alarm, then I switched it to the 12-hour format and back to 24 again. Enjoy!
