Cape Town Moanings

While taking a walk, having a smoke I heard the faintest of noises. Being the snoop that I am, I searched for the source. What I found was new neighbours, in their bedroom lights on and blinds open.

Lots of background noise, as i recorded with my Samsung S6.
If someone can help clean it up I would really appreciate it.

All comments and advice are welcome.

Great recording. Well done. Just a pity it couldn't be longer, as I don't think either finished.
Listened with VLC media player, preset 'headphones'; Equalizer pre-amp -1.6dB set just below 50%, with 17.1dB set near 100%; others sloped down to 0% from right to left. Compressor 19.7dB set at nearly 80%; others sloped down to 0% from right to left.
Seems complicated but cuts out most of background 'roar' noise. Very nice sounds. Thanks.

Can you describe your neighbors? Why no snapshot of the bedroom?

I wonder if it is a black African dude doing a white girl for the Apartheid times.

Because we respect privacy.

Actually it was a white couple! What about Apartheid times?

Thanks for that little comment, as in my opinion respectful members make this great community even better. Having said that, as I look, there have been 276 members downloading the clip and only eight have commented (apologies if my maths is wrong). what's the problem with saying a quick "thanks for sharing" when they do? It's also nice to get comments about the clip, but I have to admit that as I haven't had time to listened properly yet, I haven't commented. Promise I will when I do get time to listen properly.

On the subject of encouraging contributors, I have recently been chatting to Yeppie regarding this and he's quite positive about it. It might be that in the future, an extra factor is included for access to the archive. That being positive attitude and and comments.
