Day 011 / Contact Mic Madness

So this should be interesting.  Right now you should be hearing three stereo contact mic recordings playing back simultaneously.  Hmm, how’s it sound?  I bought a couple contact mics over the internet recently and tonight was the first time I was able to test them out.  I used two contact mics for each recording.  One as the left speaker and one as the right.
 
The first thing I thought of to record was of course my refrigerator. Sometimes it makes the strangest sounds- (I was actually a little disappointed with it’s performance tonight, usually its much more strange sounding).  The second thing I recorded was my creaky wood flooring.  I taped each of them down and creeped around them in my socks.   That sounded pretty good but I kept getting some kind of electrical interference.   Lastly, I recorded these wonderful 1950′s metal outdoor chairs which I think have to be the most resonant thing my wife and I own.  I tried all sorts of things but mostly I brushed my finger across the surface.  That was my favorite recording of the three.
 
Feel free to turn off a couple of the sounds to hear them separately.  Try out some headphones, they might sound better.
