When I cant sleep during spring and summer time, I sometimes record birds on our balcony. I live in Banska Bystrica, city in the center of Slovakia, so the best time to do this is about 4 AM. Here is my compilation of recordings from last years.
A bus ride on a rough, damaged road in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. You can hear the vehicle shaking, engine noise, passengers talking, and public transport announcements in Slovak. Recorded with Zoom H1E internal mic.

I composed this probably in 2003 on my old Yamaha PSR 225. Now I Rearranged it to this nice podcast intro. It is under CC0 so feel free to use it if you like it.
