Product Description
Garden and nature in winter: sparse birdsong, busy gardeners, dogs barking with pleasant echoes, roosters crowing, jets and propeller planes passing overhead, as well as the dead silence and eerie rustling in the depths of the night; the awakening of nature and residents in the early morning hours, and much more.
‘Residential Forest III’ is the third library in my series of long-term recordings from a German allotment environment. This remote area, surrounded by forest, features cottages, ponds, and an abundance of natural sounds. The library captures a blend of suburban, residential, and forest ambiences.
‘Residential Forest III’ includes 36 unique ambiences recorded in Germany during spring, specifically in January, from 1 p.m. to 11 a.m. the following day. From these 23 hours of recordings, I have carefully edited and curated the best moments, creating a 4 GB auditory journey through the afternoon, evening, night, morning, and midday hours in this residential forest setting.
To capture the profound silence of the night, I used a matched pair of Rode NT1-A microphones with exceptionally low noise, paired with a Tascam HD-P1 recorder.
The total duration of the library is approximately 3.5 hours, with most ambiences ranging from 5 to 10 minutes. Some are longer, while a few are shorter.
‘Residential Forest III’ was recorded in AB stereophony at 48 kHz, 24-bit.
