MMP100 | AUDIO PROJECT STATEMENT
Title: NYC Subway Surfer
Semester/Year: Fall 2023
Software: Audacity
I wanted to put together the chaotic sounds of the NYC Subway system. I first recorded the sounds of my daily train ride home from school on the 2 train, then I used the theme music of Subway Surfer – a game I used to play on my phone. Then I layered the regular sounds of announcements and the guys dancing on the train. I wanted to show my love for New York. The most challenging part of the project was looking for other sounds besides the theme song and what I recorded on my phone. The Showtime dancers I found on YouTube so I had to convert the video to audio to add it in.
