ghostmeet"Warning Day" in Berlin (Sept 11). Usually scares the shit out of me but, this time, I was finding harmonies on a polysynth when the insanely loud test alarms rang. So wasn't alarmed at all, just very confused about where that new, very nicely pitched note was coming from ;)
Ebauche (Dronal/Exan)@ghostmeet ha! Ditto. I had my headphones on working on a track and was so confused where the new tone was coming from 😁
@ebauche 👋 :D pretty satisfying when that kind of thing happens, eh?
Now I know the siren pitch, I can prepare something for next year.
Maybe I should also figure out the melody/key of the feuerwagen sirens that I hear a million times a day
@ghostmeet Definitely love a bit of random synchronicity 😊😊
There's no doubt room for a performance piece in some public place next Sept 11 😜
The feuerwagen and krankenwagen are so loud in Berlin - I always have to block my ears so I don't feel like I'm getting deafened. I don't know if they're actually louder than emergency services elsewhere, but it always felt surprisingly loud to me since I moved here.
@ebauche yeahI thought the same about a project next year. We tell everyone with a studio to prepare something that works with the sirens and blast it into the street. :)
