A recording put together by Derek Holzer of http://soundtransit.nl

The sounds used in this piece were selected from the archives of SoundTransit.nl, a collaborative, online community dedicated to field recording and phonography. Each shares some aspect of travel–whether by train, boat, airplane or motorbike–with the others, and they have been mixed into a continuous soundscape to be overlayed on top of the existing ambience of the Eindhoven Centraal Station at a matching level. What one realizes by listening carefully are the radical differences in the acoustic environments in the world around us, and that a new, “impossible” or “virtual” sonic situation is created by the combination of any of these sounds and the environment we inhabit now.
