about

(Shinkansen/Tokio, Japan) "Japan is a wonderful country with a great balance between its cultural heritage and technological development. During my 3-month stay in Japan, I was very much fascinated by the Transport system.. especially, the trains. The world famous high-speed bullet train "Shinkansen" was pioneered in Japan. I recorded plenty of interior and outdoor sounds of Shinkansen and Tokyo city trains... including passbys from various perspectives and locations such as platform, outdoor, tunnel and overhead (under the bridge perspective). Also the train station sounds themselves are so unique sounding. Lots of soothing beeps and electronic tones can be heard blended well with equally sweet sounding announcements on the tannoy speakers. The crowd sound is mostly sparse but sometimes dense when dominated by young japanese students chattering. In this piece, I have tried to keep the listeners perspective as a a free roaming agent and let it take its on flow as if a feather floating by the turbulence of air at the train station due to the activity at this fictitious station called Ukiyo Eki."
