Neighbors of Highpass

The apartment on the other side of my bed room wall is still empty (have a look at the something to look at section).
My new neighbors want to renovate first and are in a, temporarily single room apartment on the same stairs and floor I live.
When I came home last week their kitchen window was open.
They were talking and in the way she looked at her guy I knew that something could happen.
The lights went out and I slowly checked a couple of times if I could hear something. The third time with my mobil in my hand already recording I was not in doubt....
Slowly and bloody careful, on the squeaking wooden floor, I tried to come as close as possible to their door.
At every moment another neighbor could open a door......
The clip is amplified.

That 6m27s must have seemed like 60m27s. Good effort.

Last night I thought, ok..., lets have a hunt again....
On the second floor, above the apartment of my "new neighbors" I caught last week, there is a girl living from around 20 years old.
She is almost never at home but I heard the front door and coming her in.
Great I thought. She is upstairs, so the risk to be busted is less.
It was around 22.30 PM and slowly on people around me prepared to go to bed.
Not!
Mobil on "fly mode", started to record and very careful I opened my front door.
Let's keep the story short.
This one is for Yeppie.
It seemed to be the girl from the second floor had a visitor.
I was too scared to walk up the stairs. Again, I am living in an old house.
Thin doors, squeaking floors and.........
Fasten your seat belt........

Highpass, I love your new neighbors, she seems to be a cutie! Very promising first recording, keep on observing them but please be careful.
... the girl from the second floor is even better, she enjoyed being pleased loudly which I enjoyed even more

I appreciate the dedication, Thanks!

Thin doors are not only curse but bless too.
Good catch. Well done!

Its high time someone posts new quality neigbour recordings. I try every week at least one evening to get a recording but did't had luck in the last weeks. I hope that now, after the end of summer, my downstairs neigbour appear again.
how far were you away from the doors of your neighbours at the two recordings? and how many Apartments are on each floor.
ah I heard you were calling out "yeppie" during the second recording

It's a "2 floor" building, from around 70 years old.
2 stairs, 12 apartments.
Distance around 3 meter from her door.
Our little screamer seems to have a boy friend., caught them yesterday around 22.00 again.
I just came home.
I was too late. So you have only a snip.

OK i understand, that means 6 apartmens on each floor, this could be dangerious. I have only 3 incl. Me on each floor, so the Chance that one of the two others leaves the Apartment in just that Moment is quite low.

First caught in the act.
My new neighbors at the other side of a thin wall.
I saw the lights switching off around 10 PM....
The little screaming isn't often home. I think.

Score! I prefer this to the little screamer
Man, that must be one seriously thin wall.

Hi Scott,
Yep.
When I say thin it's thin.
A limestone wall with some wood, 10 cm thin.
When I write this they have visitors and I can exactly follow what they are talking about.
Nobody wants to live here anymore.
Before people ask, I want to make something clear.
I am recording from my own property......

Hello H,
I would like to add a comment on the morality issue.
If I am passing a room and I overhear something which makes me pause, am I immoral? Of course not.
If I open the door of that room to hear more clearly is this immoral? In my view, yes. It's also illegal so I don't do that.
This is the rule I follow myself. I would never "break and enter" in order to get a clearer rendition. But I might put my ear to the door if the noise interests me!
If you are recording what you can normally hear by standing in a public space or your own room then you are not being immoral. Of course, you might be being a bit "kinky" but then surely, this is what this site is all about!
