Alquimia
By Naturespace · 5 reviews ·
Múltiples vórtices de fuego, danzando sobre una cinta de luz, avanzan lenta y firmemente hacia el este. La maleza seca se consume con suavidad hasta que un viento del oeste arrebata el calor de las llamas y lo lanza como gasolina sobre el suelo del bosque. El ánimo se intensifica. El aire gira en hondas ráfagas de viento, graves y envolventes, que engendran tornados de fuego de tres metros, ondulantes y titilantes en el calor turbulento. El fuego está vivo ahora, respira, aspira oxígeno como un fantasma que por un instante vuelve a existir. Pero el viento, caprichoso, cede y late, impidiendo que el fuego alcance masa crítica. Cuando el viento amaina, el espíritu del fuego se vuelve niño. Los árboles antiguos observan desde lo alto y, en el fondo, agradecen el recorte. Ya empezaba a desordenarse ahí abajo. Es una pieza muy particular, muy influida por cómo se escucha. En altavoces, se abre como una hoguera amplia y envolvente, con chasquidos y crepitaciones que recorren toda la extensión del fuego. Con auriculares, la experiencia de estar en un bosque en llamas cobra vida. El detalle y el carácter de los vórtices en movimiento son claros, inconfundibles. El temperamento cambiante del fuego asombra y deja entrever lo rápido y fácil que un fuego natural puede intensificarse. Es un fuego enteramente benévolo, que nace de forma natural y se apaga en calma. No es una conflagración desbordada. Los árboles permanecen intactos; solo arde la maleza del suelo. Si se escucha con atención, muy a lo lejos, se oyen coyotes que gritan por el humo a través de la ladera.
What listeners say
It's worth your money. Fortunately, have never experienced a forest fire from within (the closest I ever got was watching Bambi), but I never imagined that the sound of a roaring wildfire could be so... beautiful... inviting... and mesmerizing. Initially I was worried that the sound of being engulfed by fire would turn me off to the track, but once I started listening I completely forgot about my fears! It's so lovely and exciting. This track was my first foray into using NatureSpace for creative visualization. The sounds are incredibly realistic, but the situation (being in the middle of a forest fire) requires some imagination if you want to make sense of it. It can help to imagine yourself as Daenerys, or as a mythical fire god/dess. There are hundreds of other ways you could visualize this as well! You can also just use this track as an ambience. It's amazing over speakers in lieu of a fireplace.
Listened to on headphones, this track is pretty much as described - a crackling brush fire that varies in intensity. The wildlife sounds are very slight/distant and notable only at high volume. It does sound like a convincing wildfire - but that's not an environment I really want to mentally visit. However, I took the recommendation to listen to it as a campfire or fireplace track over speakers at night and it was perfect for this. The wildlife sounds are undetectable over speakers, and what sounds like a surrounding conflagration over headphones turns into a warm and crackling fire. The changing intensity of the burn just adds interest and doesn't sound dangerous. Best of all, this is a fire track that works great over speakers. Campfire Hypnosis is great on headphones but far too subtle for speakers at all. Radiance is pretty nice over speakers but focuses more on the "roar" of a large fire with the occasional loud pop, while Alchemy is more about the steady, continuous crackling of the burn. The fire does roar, but the roar undulates in and out. In this use I find it very nice.
If you like the tracks Campfire Hypnosis and Radiance, then you will like this one. This track has a more robust fire with louder crackling and popping sounds. Under headphones, this realistic fire puts you right in the middle of the action. So relaxing. At a distance, you can hear calls from coyotes. Listening to this can also warm you on a cold night. Very nice job NatureSpace.
Wow, perfect for relaxing. I love how it reminds me of a campfire when I listen quietly and how entertaining it is when I turn it up. Great job Naturespace!
Very good. It is holding me over until the summer! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
