Travel Post #23: Party in the USA (Portland, Oregon Again)
Ending where I began the trip, this recording is a sampling of the country I almost left behind.
On this recording there is a street performer and two different conversations, one of which was just one person. While I can’t say where exactly they were recorded, the picture below was taken nearby one of them:
The storefront was blank except for soda bottles from bankrupt ventures.
Having recovered from the shock of being swathed once again in the language that not so long ago was reserved for the inside of my head, I have been able to put this together. More recordings from outside of the US will be posted when they can be identified.

Wfmu Audio Postcard #1 for Night People
In addition to this website, I also send in audio postcards to WFMU, which are played on a show called “Night People.” It airs from 2am to 6am Eastern time, on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, and it has a podcast at the wfmu.org website. This is not a field recording, just me talking. On the show I’m known as Joseph Jonathan.
Although I didn’t want to post these here at first, I am a little too pressed for time to edit my other recordings right now as my flight to India is coming up fast.
