Fields places music/audio at specific geospatial coordinates

Even though it’s only available for iOS, Fields allows you to experience audio in a new way. Instead of just walking around and listening to a song in your headphones, snippets of audio are placed around whatever location you’re at. As you approach each of these—represented by a large globe on your iPhone’s screen—you’ll start to hear a specific audio track. As you move away, the track fades. Move your iPhone around, and the sound will shift its position within your headphones (and, yes, you’ll want to use this app with headphones).

Pitchfork puts it best:

“Imagine standing in a forest, hearing different animals and noises as you step through your living room, or being able to experience a choral performance while nestled among the singers. Fields makes that possible.”
