Shenmue 1 Soundscape [Tomato Store @ Night]

Hey guys, I just threw together a quick soundscape video inspired by the Tomato store from Shenmue 1. I was standing outside a drug store last week waiting for the bus, and the sound of the automatic doors opening and closing reminded me of it. This is what I'd think it'd sound like standing outside the Tomato store on a chilly winter night (close your eyes for a better effect).

I was thinking of making something similar that encompassed most of Dobuita street (starting at the bus on the freeway and making it all the way down to bar yokosuka or something). I spent about 30 min making this video, so it was more of a trial run to see if anyone else cared.

Haha. I'll take that as a compliment.

I definitely have moments of obsession. Lately I've been wishing I was a part-time employee at the tomato store, which is why I've changed my profile avatar / theme and Photoshopped a new sig. I'm not sure what triggers it.

Yea, Instagram tends to add a pinch of jaundice to photos of people (depending on the filter). :D

Thanks for the encouragement guys. Maybe I'll start piecing together a full walkthrough of Dobuita..

This is awesome, indeed. Hmm. I think you could be of help to a project.

Ever see an art book with streaming audio? That'd be awesome and it would work well with my Culture Shock idea also. haha.

I was thinking, this would work better if you had sounds of a konobi (A Japanese convenience store) along with the tomato mart theme.

I think when I listened to it it was in English.

I like how your Tomato convenience store has a Lawson sign ShenmueTree

Yeah, I was in a hurry to make it and I'm bad at photoshopping. If anyone would like to make it for me I can supply pics. :D
