mysticwolf75 This has become my favorite album recently. I've been looking for nature sounds set to music, but most of what I found is very saccharine and/or melancholy. This is decent ambient style music that I like, set to nature sounds. Favorite track: The Nature Of Time.

about

Infused with “enhanced” nature sounds, ambient atmospheres, and surprising musical manifestations, this album features eight new tracks.

Here Bacchus has created an otherworldly, natural world by using the sounds, harmonies, and rhythms of nature as a starting point for musical explorations. He then adds lush soundfields, a vintage banjo and instrument samples from both the modern and the Renaissance eras.

The musical meter is stretched and made fluid in the creation of these soundworlds. Listeners will find themselves drifting away, effortlessly, deep into the Circadian environments created by this sound and music alchemist.
