The B-stuff   (+3)  [vote for, against]
Found sound with serious music commentary

This is a website for the uploading of found music in the form of field recordings of particularly egregious metal on metal mechanical soundscapes, with curatorial, modern classical music-type commentary.

It will start as a collection of recordings of the sound of the wheels of subway trains rubbing against the curved tracks at the Green Line Boylston street station in Boston (thus the B-stuff).

But will also be an artification of the worst of industrial environmental audio, the kind that reminds us forcably that both we and it exist, thus "Be-stuff", or ontological proof.

I think you might have trademark issues with the Third Reich - they had various Stoffs, including B- Stoff <link>

There is a repository for found sounds and enthusiastic hobbyists who do this. Let me see if I can find it.

I think a disclaimer will be necessary as YouTubes this might get confused with an American Idol episode.
