This is a field recording taken in somewoods in the Comeragh mountains. In this recording you hear a raven from a distance, it then gets extremely close before flying off again. Make sure to use your headphones for the best listening experience.

For this recording I used my clippy EM272 stereo pair of microphones plugged in to the Tascam FR-AV2!

This recording was taken at Ballinclamper beach in Dungarvan. I was out looking for a rare bird when I happened to notice these small birds called common ringed plover. Having observed them moving around on the beach I decided to put my audio recorder out and walk away for a bit. Thankfully the birds moved around my audio recorder and made some great noises. 

For this recording I used my matched stereo pair of Clippy EM272 microphones with the Tascam FR-AV2.

Ballinclamper Ringed Plover - October 2025

ROOM OF ECHOES II continues the explorations begun in the first composition of the project with a different approach. Environmental and intrumental sounds merge in slowly moving and dreamlike masses, and sonic images of villages and countrysides appear and then dissolve into these abstract forms, which are marked by a strong sense of interiority. The resonances of the unfolding soundscapes, which are sometimes tranquil and sometimes turbulent, evoke spaces both real and imaginary. 

The composition was created for an octophonic system during the creative residency of the Apnées experimental music group in Grenoble, France, in June 2025. It was premiered at the Paysages Composés festival organized by Apnées on 4 October 2025. This stereo version is adapted for listening on speakers or headphones. 


ROOM OF ECHOES II prolonge les recherches entamées dans le premier volet du projet en tentant une autre approche. Les sons environnementaux et instrumentaux se fondent en masses oniriques qui évoluent lentement, et des images sonores des extérieurs apparaissent puis se dissolvent dans ces formes abstraites, qui sont marquées par un fort ressenti d'intériorité. Les résonances des paysages sonores qui se déroulent, tantôt tranquilles, tantôt turbulents, évoquent des espaces à la fois réels et imaginaires. 

La composition a été réalisée pour un dispositif octophonique lors de la résidence de création de l'association Apnées à Grenoble en juin 2025. Elle a été créée lors du festival Paysages Composés, organisé par l'association, le 4 octobre 2025. Cette version stéréo est adaptée à l'écoute sur haut-parleurs ou sur casque.

Hi, I’m Raph! I share sounds recorded while out in nature. Most of what you’ll hear here is wildlife and natural soundscapes captured in Dungarvan and the Comeragh Mountains.
