Departures at Jomo Kenyatta airport, Nairobi, Kenya - you can hear among the normal sounds of bustle and shopping in the terminal the crackle of the security guards' radios and the feedback as they stand too close together.
Sometimes the sound of a city's airport can tell you as much about that place as a recording from its historic city centre.
