At the Baghwati temple complex people were making music from all sides; hindu mantra's, holy folk music and dancing, which is what you can hear in this layered, chaotic yet spiritual recording. the 'hello's' come from kids surrounding me, all trying to speak into the mic.Sebcatlitterhttp://soundtransit.nl/mp3/2144.Sebcatlitter.Agra_Uttar_Pradesh.labor_picking_granite_and.mp314 Nov 2011 6:38:05 +0100http://soundtransit.nl/search/artistinfo.php?id=176&sort=created&desclabourers picking granite with pick axes and a flock of goats marching along the outer walls of the grand Taj Mahal in Agra.Sebcatlitterhttp://soundtransit.nl/mp3/2143.Sebcatlitter.Mianwali.dripping_water_in_iron_bucket.mp314 Nov 2011 5:42:25 +0100http://soundtransit.nl/search/artistinfo.php?id=176&sort=created&descrecorded in our basic hotel room in Mianwali, northern Punjab state, the sound of tap water drops falling into an iron bucket in the bathroom cubicle. Our hotel was located right next to the main highway that crossed town and the hum is that of non-stop traffic passing, mostly trucks with goods. Just a few days earlier, the Taliban up north in the mountains had seized a Pakistani army convoy that carried weapons and a some tanks. During the evening we saw a big convoy of Pakistani army trucks passing by our hotel, heading up north to launch a counter offensive to recapture their lost goods. (in which they succeeded after a battle that lasted a few days)Sebcatlitterhttp://soundtransit.nl/mp3/2142.Sebcatlitter.Taxila.ruins_of_Taxila.mp314 Nov 2011 5:25:01 +0100http://soundtransit.nl/search/artistinfo.php?id=176&sort=created&descTaxila, once the centre of Buddhist studies in ancient times BC, a place where greeks, jews, hindus and buddhists lived together in peace.

This is holiest of temples for pilgrims of the Sikh religion. Staying at the temple is free and the Gurudwara provides every pilgrim with free basic food and water/tea. Here you can hear people converging, eating their dinner while the metal thali plates are being collected, washed and stacked.Sebcatlitterhttp://soundtransit.nl/mp3/2140.Sebcatlitter.Jalandhar_Punjab.begging_street_kids_outside.mp314 Nov 2011 4:36:28 +0100http://soundtransit.nl/search/artistinfo.php?id=176&sort=created&descrecorded during the yearly (125 years old) Hariballabh Sangeet Sammelan f estival of Indian classical music in the Devi Talab temple complex in Jalandhar, state of Punjab.
we often crossed the street to get a chai or a small bite in one of the stalls. in front of the entrance, various kids were always begging. even though the festival was free in (as most musical festivals in India are), people of lowest classes or homeless folks were not allowed in. Kids came up to us to get some change or a piece of food while you can hear of the classical singers performing. holy sounds on a backdrop of contrasting reality.Sebcatlitterhttp://soundtransit.nl/mp3/2139.Derek_Holzer.Bansko.gpitsinbells.mp329 Oct 2011 11:58:10 +0100http://soundtransit.nl/search/artistinfo.php?id=3&sort=created&descSveta Troitsa (or the Church of the Holy Trinity) was built in Bansko, Bulgaria, between 1810 and 1850.
