city noise

ambient of old town, including sound of birds (first to last: sparrows,
one collared dove, pigeons), barking dogs, bells at varying distances,
and a couple firetrackers. Amplified, with hiss and traffic rumble
removed/ ambiente de ciudad vieja, con pájaros (gorriones, una tortola turca, palomas), ladrido de perros, campanas a diversas distancias y un par de cohetes. He amplificado y despues quitado el ruido de trafico y el siseo de fondo.

I might use this as a ambient background for a horror series. this could give off a creepy vibe if used correctly

hanstimm: you are quite right, this sample is badly distorted, sorry! By the date I uploaded this I lacked expertise and, even worst, tried to filter mic noise, the result is so-so to say the least. But for a similar ambience sample you may try this one (compressed) instead: http://www.freesound.org/samplesViewSingle.php?id=34774
I have also uploaded now the uncompressed original:

Cool, its hard to imagine how it sounded when there was no traffic rumble in the old times, but this sound made it possible! :D
