[ASMR] 1 Hour Binaural Nature Field Recording in Tuscany Countryside

Continuing with my comparisons between the Schoeps Mk 2 and the CCM 4 (mk 4). This was a challenging one as urban noises makes the comparison a little less 'like for like conditions' but generally if you listen to the bird quality over everything else you will hear a significant difference between the two.

Release Date : 23rd February 2015

Grasscut, the duo of Andrew Phillips and Marcus O’Dair, return in February with a new single, Curlews/September Night’s Sky – the first single from the band’s forthcoming third album, Everyone Was A Bird, to be released by Lo Recordings in May 2015. 

Whilst first performed in collaboration with the Kronos Quartet to over 4,000 people in a warehouse in Poland, Curlews origins lie much closer to home. It’s meditative piano intro, soaring strings and sense of open skies and distant horizons inspired by the British coastline. “I’d started it on the train from Birmingham to Wales,” say Phillips, “and as I reworked it later for the album the music, especially the piano and string rhythms, kept pulling me back back to the Mawddach Estuary. I kept stripping layers and layers away, till eventually the melody, mood, and words were exposed – like they'd always been there.”

“The poet Harriet Tarlo cautions against the lazy use of ornithological metaphors for human emotion, but watching the curlews on the estuary, I really thought: this is me, digging around in the mud till I find it. I hope that's not lazy.”

That sense of place and belonging resonates throughout much of Grasscut’s work, and the forthcoming album features liner notes from the renowned landscape writer Robert Macfarlane. 

Alongside Curlews comes September's Night Sky, a story of a spring equinox in the Southern Hemisphere. Scored by fragmented keyboards, guitars and sweeping strings it brings to mind the sense of both majesty and fragility that a starry night can inspire.

Paysage sonore au bois de la Barthe à Séméac (65)

Paysage sonore de Séméac - Bois de la Barthe, le 13 juin 2024

Écouter, c’est toujours un peu agrandir le monde. C’est recueillir des traces, accueillir l’inattendu, tisser des présences. Mais c’est aussi garder la mémoire des instants fugaces de ce qui bruisse, bat, résonne et se transforme.

Le 15 février à 19h, Phaune Radio ouvre encore une fenêtre sur des éclats d’ici et d’ailleurs : des battements d’ailes, des chants vibrants, des souffles et des frémissements, des lignes de forces, des mélodies éphémères et bientôt disparues.

À l’occasion des 20 ans de Sonatura, Grégoire Chauvot et Mélia Roger ont rassemblé ces instants de vie saisis par les membres de l’association. Chaque enregistrement, une empreinte sonore, un fragment de paysage vivant qui, en nous, continue d’évoluer.
Un cadeau inédit qu’ils nous font pour un bel anniversaire.
Alors, tendez l’oreille… et laissez ces mondes sonores vous traverser.

Avec des enregistrements de : Pascal Dhuicq, Olivier Pichard, Noémie Delaloye, Mélia Roger, Grégoire Chauvot, Lê Quan Ninh, Jean-Claude Gallard, Laurent Cros, Jean-Christophe Pratt, Dominique Carcreff, Denis Wagenmann, Colin Hunter, Jean-Baptiste Masson, Antoine Monségur

Listening is always a way to expand the world a little. It means gathering traces, welcoming the unexpected, weaving presences. But it also means preserving the memory of fleeting moments—of what rustles, beats, resonates, and transforms.

On February 15 at 7 PM, Phaune Radio opens another window onto fragments from near and far: the beating of wings, vibrant songs, breaths and tremors, lines of force, ephemeral melodies soon to vanish.

To celebrate Sonatura’s 20th anniversary, Grégoire Chauvot and Mélia Roger have gathered these moments of life, captured by members of the association. Each recording is a sonic imprint, a fragment of a living landscape that continues to evolve within us.
A unique gift they offer us for a special anniversary.
So, open your ears… and let these soundscapes flow through you.

Featuring recordings by: Pascal Dhuicq, Olivier Pichard, Noémie Delaloye, Mélia Roger, Grégoire Chauvot, Lê Quan Ninh, Jean-Claude Gallard, Laurent Cros, Jean-Christophe Pratt, Dominique Carcreff, Denis Wagenmann, Colin Hunter, Jean-Baptiste Masson, Antoine Monségur

Ecoutes Vagabondes avec Sonatura

Sinister Night with Red Foxes, Eurasian eagle-owl and Cormorant.

Great Bittern in the marshes of the Seine, on March 24th 2025

Always difficult recording nocturnal subjects when you can't see them, especially with a parabolic dish that's super directional. I don't think I got it 'smack' on with this recording but I'm more gutted that the female wasn't present as prior to me getting the recording gear out, she was doing an epic bubbling call back to the male and it would have made such a nice recording but a car pulled up and she flew off...Till next time owls!

Binaural Dummy Head Field Recording Tuscany Session 25/4/2025

Imaginez-vous un matin d'avril, au bord d'un chemin paisible, entouré par la symphonie de la nature qui s'éveille. Les premiers rayons du soleil filtrent à travers les feuillages, révélant une palette de verts tendres et de fleurs printanières. Dans ce cadre, une multitude d'oiseaux se joignent pour créer un concert unique et harmonieux.

La Mésange bleue et la Mésange charbonnière, avec leurs gazouillis vifs et joyeux, semblent se répondre d'arbre en arbre. Le Rossignol philomèle, maître du chant, déploie ses mélodies complexes et envoûtantes, tandis que la Fauvette des jardins et la Fauvette à tête noire ajoutent leurs trilles délicats à cette symphonie.

Le Coucou gris, avec son chant caractéristique, annonce le printemps, tandis que le Pinson des arbres et la Grive musicienne apportent des notes douces et mélodieuses. Le Merle noir, perché sur une branche, émet son chant flûté, accompagné par le Pouillot véloce et le Pouillot fitis, dont les sons aigus et répétitifs se fondent parfaitement dans l'ensemble.

Enfin, la Bergeronnette des ruisseaux, avec son chant clair et rythmé, complète ce tableau sonore, créant une atmosphère apaisante et vivifiante, typique des matins printaniers en pleine nature.
