I live and work in an incredibly noisy city and when I sit down to read I really need to block out the chaos around me.
I'm looking for recommendations for field recordings that capture the sounds of nature - things like forests, ocean waves, rain, wind in the trees, birdsong, mountain streams and so on - or ambient albums.
What are your favourite albums in this space? I'd be grateful for any suggestions. Thanks in advance!
Slightly OT, but I always had problems to "block out" the city sounds with ambient or calm music (I live in Hamburg, very noisy city, too). There is always a jackhammer, a car horn blowing, a chatty couple breaking through.
Hence, in my experience, music like wall-of-noise, death metal, gabber, breakcore, or digital hardcore are *very* effective to bleed out every sound and noise around you!
