Soundscapes

This is a soundscape I made for a large scale art and oral history event for Light Night in Liverpool.
It was designed to create the texture of a working Docks in Liverpool in the 50's & 60's.
Some of my sounds from a Tascam DR-07 MKII.

Props to these sounds to adding to the mix.

Hi Fortom, nice soundscape, captures the general ambience of docks very well. I'll be using this for the soundtrack to a reading my husabnd is giving about the Thames estuary and the port of Ptettin in what was then Prussia. Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot, I've used this in a documentary called Children of War, which is about children's experiences during the war and it was all based around the Liverpool area. I'll provide you with some more information if you want, or you can visit the website http://www.childrenofwar.co.uk

Hi!

We are using this as the dock noises for our show Titanic - The Movie, The Play. It's a live action parody of the James Cameron movie, Titanic.
