Exaggerated Walking


"Exaggerated Walking" was recorded just off of Greenfield Ave. on 70th street in West Allis, WI inside of a cement stair case.

LISTEN HERE!

The echo on the cement, almost entirely enclosed staircase was to delightful to pass up. At the top of it was a parking lot, and at the bottom was a walkway that led to businesses and office buildings. As the sound recorder, I stepped slowly and heavily down the stair case, much to the delight of several passers by. In the background a light rumble from the foundry several blocks away can be heard. As I reviewed my sounds, I discovered that this low rumble can be heard throughout all of downtown West Allis since it is at the base of a hill.
