The corridor I was sitting in had a surprising lack of any kind of music.

We have a small fire escape balcony that’s been covered in scaffolding since March of this year. This recording captures the sounds from the facade work as well as the traffic below. The hum in the background is a real sound that can be heard when the office windows are open. This is a stationary recording where I set the recorder on a tripod directly outside of my office window. You can see the Empire State Building through the scaffolding safety net.

It generally feels pretty remote, but you can hear the occasional reminder that you're ~5 miles from JFK airport, as well as some car sounds here and there. This is a stationary recording where I set the recorder on a tripod under a fallen tree to use as protection to avoid the pattering sounds of rain on an umbrella.
