#AudioMo for June 30, 2024
To end AudioMo for this year, though I didn't post every day, I offer this short narrated thing I put together on June 28, 2018, demonstrating how quickly the night sounds change in my old hometown around this time of year.
I was recovering from some serious alergy badness in this recording, so my voice isn't quite what it should be. Sorry 'bout that.
I would re-record the voice track, but I apparently didn't save the project in anything but rendered format.

#audiomo day 27: This is one of my all time favorite Jewel songs. This is Foolish Games taht I recorded back in January. darcyandholly.com/karaoke/fool…
OK #audiomo, today we are listening to some wonderful rhythmic droplets in the bathtub of a hotel in FLorida. I really hope I am going to use this sound for one of my tunes in the future. Here you go!

To make up for #AudioMo day 21, here's a clip of a skype call that took place between myself and my friend Trenton Matthews. We were talking about impersonations, and his female impersonation led to him talking about birth control. Honestly, it's too funny and I crack up every time I hear this. I hope you enjoy this fun little clip. :)
Have an awesome day!

#AudioMo: It's #NottingHillCarnival 2014. You're virtually standing about 8 feet above ground level, as you are temporarily on a mic-stand. Observe the huge drumming and live music passing you by.
Dear #audiomo, it's hard to choose from dozens of travel recordings, but how about this one -- a church belltower from a distance in Bath, United Kingdom.
I just set up my home to be voice controlled and responded by well, one of my favourite audio book narrators. Its as scary as it is silly. And no, I won’t keep it so. #audiomo
Not worth me talking around this one but for day 21 of #AudioMo, have a listen to me smashing a glass. I was on Whatsapp at the time hence the encoding.
#AudioMo: Two days ago, Jake picked up a Sony #PS4 from his friend for all of £30. Yesterday, after not playing it for many, many years, I bought #Tekken2 and introduced him to it. This is my first reaction recording after not playing it for so long.
I used to sink hours and hours into this game on the original Playstation back in the 90's, so this is incredibly nostalgic for me.
From the music, to the sounds, everything is tied up in memories of yesteryear.
First, you'll hear the intro music, then a practice match so I can remember the combos, then a survival match.
His friend also found a second controller which Jake picked up yesterday after this recording happened, so we played two-player and it was a lot of fun.
One of the first times I've been able to game with my son in this way and we both loved every minute of it.

#AudioMo 2024 day 15: A day late, but never a dollar short. To make up for it, I'm sharing a fun little number introduced many years ago to an online friend who is dearly missed. I became acquainted with Marcel Oates on Twitter, and spent hours on Facetime with him. He had a sense of humor, a gorgeous voice, and loved to talk all things audio, and of course dogs. When he shared this song with me, I about fell out my chair laughing.
I still remember the night I received a text from his sister informing me of his passing. It was actually a rainy night, and I went outside and cried along with the angels, their teardrops falling around me. He was a dear friend who I didn't know for long, but made a significant impact on my life.
One of the things I remember is his humor, and his laugh. We spent so much time coming up with funny concepts and scinarios that we wish to record if we could.
Enjoy this fun little number, and I hope you have an awesome day!

This is an excerpt I recorded for "Blind Ham News," which is part of the CQ Blind Hams podcast feed.
The host, W0QA, asked for the story behind our callsigns, so I recorded this.

Yesterday's #audioMo didn't post, so here it is again. or for the first time, maybe. A look at the changes to #BrailleScreenInput in #VoiceOver on the upcoming #iOS18.
#AudioMo: A great sound as our Samsung washingmachine cleans itself. Water is spinning at a high rate of speed, and if you used this sound in a game and turned it down, put some engine noise under it, perhaps it could be a boat crossing a lake or something.
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

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.

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.

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.

Let's go back to Disneyland for today's #AudioMo and take a ride on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Two things about this recording. Thing 1: it's so cool to hear the sounds the coaster makes as it's going up and down its various drops. Thing 2: The poor guy at the beginning of this recording had no idea what he was getting himself into. lol.
#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.
