Name: Coastal Hollow - Crashes by Andy Martin, Field Recordist in Glugging
Duration: 4 min 15 s
Description: This track isn't really from within a coastal hollow. This is the underside of a large boulder being repeatedly smacked by a shallow tide.

i love these glugs! can you make it downloadable?

Occasionally I see interesting tight squeezes and think, "My microphones can fit in there."

This is one of those times. Along the coast there are great big hollow rocks being slowly eroded by shallow saltwater waves. They aren't sea caves, at least not the kind you would stand in comfortably. When a wave pushes against the opening it makes a nice thump before slowly filling in. The water swirls for a bit, then slowly drains. At the right tide height with the right rocks it makes a nice "schlork" sound I like to refer to as "glugging".

As much fun as coastal recording can be, I'm much better with inland soundscapes. For some of the most interesting shoreline recordings you'll ever hear, you should check out my good friend Peter Comley  at http://www.petercomleysound.com/sound-effects-libraries1.html

Coastal Hollow - Crashes

2016

Gilles Grimaître - piano

Commande de ECHO et BOZAR Bruxelles

Contrapluma

That last bit of compression just before the water hits the underhand is so satisfying, especially with the blurp-y splash right after

Coastal Pocket

This is the archetypical coastal glugging hollow to me. Drained of water, you can hear the approaching surge through the hollow rocks. When it fills up, though, it's like a giant sloshing can. Only when the water drains does it sound like the open channel it really is.

This hollow gets deep. When the water was drained I could walk on the wet sand. After the surge, though, the fill limit was 2-3 feet.

Coastal Hollow - Surging Chamber

Another angle on the same surging chamber as before. I tried to focus a little more on the sloshing, but it's difficult to get a good aim when dangling mics from above.

Coastal Hollow - Surging Chamber 2

This nice, long chamber was further up the beach from the previous chambers. As such, it had a nice long surge and drain without ever staying full.

Coastal Hollow - The Tunnel

Like The Tunnel, this hollow was further up the beach from the rest. The difference here is that the actual fill chamber was deep inside the rock and I was only ever able to record through a crevice that looked into it. Rather than hearing the water slosh up and around in a wide stereo field, we instead mostly hear the reverberant surges and splashes. It has a nice giant "chamber" feel without any direct slosh.

What does a sandy desert sound like? Spend a little time letting your ears become accustomed to the sparse soundscape and you'll start hearing a lot of detail. Long version at https://youtu.be/cRkK0bIfrAc
