Breakbeat - Stockmann

start:
street
end:
department store

0:53 minutes (1.22 MB)

Sat 12.5.07, Helsinki, noon. A transition from the street to inside a department store. The recording starts with applause as there is a breakdance performance going on the street (music, handclapping, people talking, cars faintly in background). Music gets quieter as I get further away from the dancers and the ambience changes when I enter the department store (no music, lot of people, clothes rustling, footsteps etc).

Blacksmith - Fountain - Applause


1:18 minutes (1.78 MB)

Sat 12.5.07, Helsinki, noon. A recording from the Esplanadi boulevard in Helsinki during the Eurovision final day, so there are a lot of tourist attractions. The recording starts from a blacksmiths stall (people talking, traffic, sound of hammer hitting metal) proceeds past a fountain (water, wind hum, people, faint music in background) and gets closer to the Esplanadi stage where a folk song just ends, ending with applause.
