夏至
By Naturespace · 3 reviews ·
一年で最も昼の長い日。朝の光が差し込み、森の小道はゆっくりと温もりを帯びていく。山腹へと緩やかに続く細い道では、バッタが陽の熱に身をさらしている。谷からは涼しい風が立ちのぼり、頭上の梢を抜けてやわらかく届く。 その上昇する空気に呼応するように、松ぼっくりが枝のあいだから地面へ落ち、斜面を転がって谷へと消えていく。カケスやリスがひっきりなしに行き交い、この心地よく牧歌的な景色にささやかな賑わいを添えている。日差しは強まるが、森には十分な木陰があり、その熱をやわらげている。あたたかく、心地よい。 細やかに動き続けるこの場所には、他にない整いと調和がある。穏やかで生き生きとしていて、すべてがあるべきところに収まっている。対立も問題もない。いくつもの要素が重なり、めずらしい均衡が生まれている。 ヘッドフォンでは臨場感豊かに、スピーカーでは明るく軽やかな空気として広がる。 音量を上げすぎると、この音の自然さは損なわれます。まずは控えめに設定し、自然に感じられるところまでゆっくりと上げてください。
What listeners say
I love this track so much. Great at work and even sitting outside with headphones on. Lol. It can be hard to find peace of mind during winter in the north but this helps. It's so amazing.
A gentle morning breeze through pine trees. There are birds and other wildlife which are fairly active in the track, but in a way that feels very relaxing. Everyone is just going about their business, mostly from quite a distance away. There's a nice sense of space on this track, you can really hear the distance, both vertical and horizontal. An echoing quality suggests being on a mountainside. The pine cones don't fall too near, and mostly result in a crackling sound at various distances. A nice morning track that is very "chill" and doesn't have running water.
If you like Ascendency Of The Redwoods then this might appeal also. They have a similar character. A nice mellow background of wind in conifers, near constant pop and snap of deadfall in the form of pine cones and twigs and sparse birds. There is a particularly nice flyby by a bird on this track and the falling cones add a hypnotic quality to the track. I use it for both meditation and as background noise. Works well for both. The wind picks up in the middle of the track giving a nice lift to the ambience. Feels quite lonely and sparse and I enjoy the deadfall, it's almost like listening to a fire at times.
