Wind, crickets, owl

The soundscape of the village is lush, and its acoustics are very interesting as it sits on a few hills overlooking valleys with creeks at the bottom. Longer version at https://youtu.be/KoI9vKl2qLw

Lazy afternoon in the countryside

While visiting Hawaii in March of 2022 I enjoyed unique patches of the bamboo forest on Maui. The sound of the environment completely changed as soon as I entered the thick forest. In the dense bamboo a compelling percussive sound starts in the distance and ebbed toward me as the wind swayed the tall skinny shoots. Clicking and clacking together it felt as if this spontaneous rhythm passed through me.

A Simple Timer [Disquiet 0555]

A few minutes of light rain falls through tall cypress trees and onto the flooded forest floor, then very distant thunder rumbles through the Big Cypress National Preserve, Florida. Four clips blended from the hour-long storm, August 2022 with Usi Pro omni pair attached to cypress tree 18 inches apart, and Zoom F3 recorder.

Remember The Comet [Full Album in Free Download in The Description]

with Dagon, I endeavored to go beyond 'Invisible Cloak'. Dagon is written in multiple bpms. Each time I reloaded the .wav into a new project, I would change the bpm a little, from higher to lower and back again over many reiterations. In this way I could approach the canvas from multiple angles in time. It is not in any specific time signature. The time signature is fluid and morphing constantly. It is written off grid. I approached this piece as a visual art, not exactly as music.

Silence (Estonian Forest)

Life positively abounds in Sarawak, Borneo and nowhere more than the Lambir Hills, which scientists recognize as one of the world’s most ecologically diverse areas. When they sampled just 52 hectares of the park’s 7,000 hectares, they found 1,050 different species of trees, each supporting 1,200 species of insects.

Borneo Mystifying Midnight Atmosphere | Lambir Hills, Sarawak

Quiet evening, after rain, in forest near Lake Winona in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas, Sept 1, 2012.  Compilation of extracts from a 30+ min recording made just after sunset.  The obvious bird is a pileated woodpecker.  Don't know what the other birds are.   Crickets and cicadas throughout.  Recording made using a handheld parabolic mic.  There were many mosquitoes attacking, so there is some mic handling noise.   [location: 34° 47.732' N 92° 52.358' W]

Sounds of Nature - Relaxing Rainforest

Sounds of Nature - a pine forest in April

Что может быть лучше звуков природы? Бегущие ручьи под первыми тёплыми лучами солнца, пение птиц и звонкая капель приходящей весны, шум шелестящих ветвей, словно морская волна с перекатами и приливом и конечно же, скрип старых сосен, томно раскачивающихся на ветру. Всё это собрано в этом музыкальном треке, записанным мною в апреле.

Эта композиция, создана для расслабления нервной системы и приведения её в порядок. Каждый кусочек звука собран в единый трек продолжительностью 25 минут. Вступление состоит из звуков ручья и воды, что бы ввести слушателя в тему и расслабить, дальше, вы услышите грозные раскаты гула ветвей от сильного ветра, это расслабит и позволит отвлечься от ненужных мыслей. В середине трека, вы услышите загадочный скрип сосен, а к концу композиции мы вернёмся к солнечному ручью. 

Надеюсь вы прослушаете данный трек до конца и он не только очарует Вас, но и поможет вам расслабиться и привести ваши нервы в порядок! Релаксируйте, расслабляйтесь и любите природу. Для прослушивания, я рекомендую надеть хорошие наушники и лежать закрыв глаза в тишине.


Sounds of Nature - a pine forest in April

What could be better than the sounds of nature? Flowing streams under the first warm rays of the sun, bird songs and calls drops of spring coming, the sound of rustling branches, like a sea wave and tidal shoals, and of course, the creaking of old pine trees, languidly swaying in the wind. All this comes in this musical track recorded by me in April.

This composition is designed to relax the nervous system and bring it into order. Each piece is assembled into a single audio track of 25 minutes. The entry consists of the sounds of the creek and water, which would introduce the listener to the topic and relax, go on, you will hear the ominous rumble rumble branches from the strong wind, it will relax and get away from unwanted thoughts. In the middle of the track, you will hear a mysterious creaking pine trees, and by the end of the song we go back to the solar stream.

I hope you will listen to this track to the end and it will not only enchant you but also help you to relax and bring your nerves in order! Relaxing, relax and enjoy nature. To listen, I recommend to put on good headphones and lay eyes closed in silence.

Mainly nature field recordings from the Ouachita and Ozark Mountains of Arkansas. Some recordings are done in northern Italy, near Lago Maggiore, mostly in Val Veddasca.
