Japan : Waiting for the Shinkansen, Kyoto Station

This speaks for itself really. The Shinkansen trains are fantastic and I couldn't resist making some recordings from the Kyoto Station platform while we were waiting to jump on.


Recorded on 27 March 2009

Its fascinating to compare the sound environment of subway and train stations in different countries. Thanks for sharing yours.

That's an artistic approach Ollie! But seriously, it's so good to see your diary entering a sort of Renaissance era lately. Please keep it going! Vladimir.

@Listentoearth - Thanks for the comment - you know, I've lived 2 minutes away from a small train station in Exeter for about 4 years, and I still haven't recorded anything there!

@Vladimir - I'm pleased you're find it enjoyable Vladimir. I think it's down to a combination of having a much more convenient recording device and a really inspirational holiday in Japan ;-)

I hope I can find enough to keep me excited once the Japan recordings have all been posted!

Yes Ollie they are really good, and you've promised some more Ye Olde English bits when the Japan ones are over ) I'm really looking forward to it. Hello from Russia. Vladimir.

Do you do any recording yourself Vladimir?

Well, actually I own the same SP-TFB-2s as you Ollie ;) I've bought them exactly a year ago, on a September day like this. So my answer is yes )
