Rain Walk to the Old State House in Boston | Binaural City Sounds | 4K ASMR

Heavy rain overnight, still going by morning. This walk moves through the heart of Boston while it is still coming down — starting near Washington Street, passing the Old State House, and ending at South Station in the Financial District. Binaural audio start to finish: hard rain, and a city that has decided to carry on anyway. A note for those who keep track of such things: a new polarized filter was on the lens that morning, and the footage runs at a higher contrast than usual. The audio works for sleep or study, the way steady rain tends to. But it is also a plain record of downtown Boston in weather most people wait out — the city still moving, the rain not letting up, and one walk cutting straight through it, from Washington Street to the trains.

Best with headphones — the audio is true binaural. Watch on YouTube (recommended on TV).
