Welcome to Cidade Som

Today we unveil the Cidade Som (Sound City) website, where we keep all of the sounds gathered by OUT.RA throughout the course of the many field recording and sound documentation projects we've developed in Barreiro since 2012.

The Mata Nacional da Machada (Machada Woods), the old Industrial Area, the Avenida da Praia (Beach Avenue) and Alburrica are some of the places you can hear on the website, as well as other sounds well known to those living in Barreiro such as the EMEF workshop siren, the bell of the Nª Srª do Rosário church, the Quinta do Braamcamp and the municipal markets, and also the many "hidden" sounds of the structures that support the public water network in Barreiro, among many others.

You can also follow Cidade Som on Facebook to keep in touch with the project and be the first to know about the new sounds we will release on our website over time.

Enjoy!
