Det Mekaniska Undret
Andreas Österberg wondered what everyone is listening to as they ride buses and trams through the cities. He ended up creating a soundtrack to a tramway line in Göteborg, line 11 from Bergsjön to Saltholmen.
The music, both instrumental and with vocals, catches the atmosphere around the stops along the line and is also adpated to the time it takes to ride the tram from the start in Bergsjön to the last stop in Saltholmen.
To the project; Det Mekaniska Undret he calls it (“The Mechanical Wonder”); he’s also added video clips for each distance, filmed riding the tram. A brilliant and skilfully implemented idea you can follow through his blog. Listen more on Bandcamp, on Youtube or on Spotify. Here are a couple of tracks/stops and one of the clips:
