Sounds of Brighton Beach

Brighton Beach on a week day evening in June.

Impressions: Cockles and roll mop herring.  Blue sky, frothy green sea, loud, strong wind.  Parked boats clanking and ringing like giant accidental wind chimes.  Wind tries to push me over. Pebbles crunching underfoot, gulls prowling and guarding the bins.  Burnt out pier, rusty columns, windswept walkers, people taking shelter behind boards and benches, lifeguards between yellow flags.  Don’t drink and drown signs.

Question: What is the soundscape where you are?  Close your eyes and listen to the sounds around you.
