Sound Postcard : 005 : Automatic Car Wash
At first I was going to tell you all about this one, but then decided to leave it a mystery. Can you guess what it is? Respond below! If and when someone guesses correctly, I will reveal the circumstances behind this recording.
[edit]
OK, looks like you guys gave up on this one. I did have one correct guess submitted via Facebook, so the winner there is Vivek Jena who proudly displays his photo with Benn Jordan as the last.fm avatar [hehe!]. The correct answer is Automatic Car Wash!!!
The recorder was placed in cup holder, so that its body made contact with the entire car to pick up all of the bass rumbles. Ah, yes, now you can hear those loose large fabric pieces waving and slapping against the windshield, followed by repetitive high-pressure spraying from the nozzles, and then some more cleaning and brushing – this last part does indeed sound like the train wheels… Anyway, hope you enjoyed… I definitely like this one a lot!

It sounds like it has been slowed down. Whatever it is, it is quite intense.
My current guess is something along the likes of a washing machine with an unbalanced load.

really tough! inside a factory – some kind of texile industry?
Hehe… nope… it’s definitely tough… As you can hear, there’s a “mechanical” element to it… and there is definitely [some kind of] “fabric” involved ;)
a train?
Nope… I know that it really sounds like train tracks at the end… Very rhythmical…
