In celebration of the Equinox, I camped and recorded nature sounds in the Pachaug State Forest in Connecticut on September 22nd, 2021.

Although Connecticut is my home state, this was my first overnight field recording trip. That's because Connecticut is not a great state for recording quiet nature sounds. Connecticut has zero national forests, zero national parks (not counting historic sites), and zero BLM land.

Since the Pachaug State Forest is the largest forest in the state (27,000 acres), I thought it was my best chance at recording silence. Although I did capture some noise pollution free sounds, it was challenging and most of my recordings were polluted even late into the night, primarily by vehicle noise. 

Most of these recordings were made possible thanks to rain and wind overpowering the noise pollution, rendering it inaudible.

Ascension - Christopher Lloyd Clarke

The montane rainforests of Gunung Halimun are one of the last truly wild places on the island of Java. Logging and intensive farming have all taken their toll on this densely populated Indonesian island, and only small fragments of healthy forest remain.

In the lush, steep hills of the Gunung Halimun-Salak mountain range, rushing mountain streams cascade through ancient mossy forests, and wildlife is abundant.

This album captures the gentle sounds of a mountain stream along with birds, frogs and insects from the surrounding rainforest from afternoon until about the early hours of the morning. 

With the natural 'white-noise' from the rushing stream, this album is ideal for noise-masking, as a sleeping aid, and for sufferers of tinnitus.

I'm happy to present my first digital mini-album. It's called "alp" and it contains six piano improvisations inspired by nature. The tracks were played in a recording studio with an acoustic piano. You can download alp (which includes this track)on bandcamp: http://ariad.bandcamp.com.
