Sounded really nice to me. Often times we think of how to add beauty to cities with visual arts but rarely do we consider using sound. Cool concept!

@pauldateh 10 лет назад

This is a pretty cool idea. Definitely more pleasant than those harsh beeps.

Whats going on with it currently? Wouldn't you need to go through the board of the MTA? i imagine it would be a difficult process

Yes

There are lots of harsh sounds in any large city. Street musicians, rain, and snow falling are some of the more pleasant sounds out there. I am so grateful for the sounds of street musicians and nature in a big city. It gives me great relief and pleasure among the hustle and bustle and weird close quarters among strangers. I'd like to hear a longer concept audio of this subway turnstyle music. It's hard to get a good handle on what this really could be. Thanks for hearing me out.

@trimembracion 10 лет назад

I wonder if he designed those sounds or what kind of synth and pad he used for this?

@artecarlosflores 10 лет назад

Tu eres el q pregunta como hizo los sonidos??

@trimembracion 10 лет назад

Carlos Flores haha, sí, tu qué andas haciendo por aquí. Está de huevos no?

@artecarlosflores 10 лет назад

@JoshuaWysocki 3 года назад

did this project ever go thru?

@leer9360 3 года назад

No I believe it go rejected because they thought it would cause too much of a disturbance to people using the trains while installing it. It is supposed to be used on the lowline project in NY but that project has been put on hold due to a lack of funds.

Hey? You Know What We DON'T Need in New York? More Bumper-softifcation of the City making the place more Kid-Friendly and Tourist Safe! This possibly the Only comment on this list from an Actual New York Native- Leave New york a Little HarsH

I don't like his so called beautiful turnstile sounds.

"The world should pay me for something it doesn't need". We get it, your last gig was 4 years ago and you need money. Go find real problems to solve.

@mastersoftoday 8 лет назад

I don't think he was asking for/expecting money... it's a beautiful project and it's deeply saddening to me that it wasn't realized in NYC, because it could've spread to more cities and eventually reach where I'm from.

Get'cher head outta yer ass. Realistically, with or without LCD Soundsystem, James Murphy is a big-time industry figure with money to burn. Anything he would've stood to gain from this, if anything at all even, would be negligible at best. So, fun as it might be, yank off those cynic-goggles and maybe realize that people (even millionaires, shockingly) can come up with something out of genuine passion. Sometimes it's just the little things. But sure you wouldn't know to get your head around that.
