Akihabara Station reimagined byt Michael Lilley.
"I chose to contrast the white noise ambience of the crowd in Akihabara Station with the electronic bing bongs. I added some discordant oboes, to add a feeling of general unease.
"Towards the end, as the soundscape fades, I'd like to think the effect I created is the train shunting off!"
Part of the Until We Travel project to map and reimagine the sounds of transport and travel in a pre-pandemic and pandemic world. See the whole project at https://www.citiesandmemory.com/travel.
