Distant highway traffic drifts across the water in this morning commute capture from a cliffside rental in Osage Beach.
The morning commute.
Not every recording is about untouched wilderness. My rental property in Osage Beach, Missouri, had a great, but distant view of a local highway bridge, so I captured what it sounded like first thing in the morning: the ambient flow of cars and trucks, likely people making their way to work while I sat back and watched from the cliffside.
I’m not sure how many listeners will enjoy the sound of cars in the distance. But it was a defining feature of the property, and a soundscape is a soundscape. Think of it as a kind of white noise: a steady, rolling wash of traffic, softened by distance, with the lake and the early-day atmosphere settled in underneath. If you’ve ever found calm in the hum of a city from a safe remove, this one might surprise you.
