This track is inspired by Cake, a Swedish company that manufacture electric motorbikes. I used audio recordings of bikes and other vehicles I captured mostly from the Essono City quartier of Yaounde on my LG V20 mobile phone and meshed them with beats I'd been creating to illustrate how noise carries into nearby homes and residences. Motorbikes have an average sound level of 90db which is 10db passed the accepted sound level we should be exposing ourselves to in order to refrain from developing symptoms of certain auditory conditions such as deafness according to research from an Audiology website. Essensially a blow dryer in comparison, is 80db so riding a motorbike all day is almost equivalent to having a blowdryer by your ears for approximately 8 hours of your day. Not only does the sub frequency rumbling affect the foundations of nearby residences but the rugged loudness of the combustion engine can be off putting for some including the drivers themselves who in Cameroon make up most of the public transport system due to lower fuel requirements as opposed to larger vehicles. However I tried to be creative with the sounds I recorded and well... I prefer to leave the piece open to interpretation in-hopes of inspiring you or anybody else. peaceandthankyou
