Listen "S02E04 - City Hum"
Episode Synopsis
A winter night recording from Vienna's Wienerberg - an elevated plateau where the city reveals its acoustic wholeness. From 60 meters above, all those individual sounds of urban life - traffic, heating systems, distant conversations - merge into one continuous drone. The city becomes a single breathing presence, a foggy cloud of sound hovering in the darkness.Recorded December 29th, 2023, with stereo ambient sampling microphones.For the pure soundscape without narration, visit the YouTube channel "The Listening Field."
