Wind through the poplar tree leaves.
THX intro
Whale songs
The wind through a casurina tree.
(Especially whilst sitting in their shade on a 40C degree day)
Light rain on the sides of a tent
Yup yup. This is perfect. Sends me right to sleep.
Silence.
Hello darkness my old friend.
Can’t get much better then a squeaky pop from hydrogen.
For me it’s not a single sound. It’s a combination.
A nice breeze rustling the leaves of trees or blades of grass in a field and the sounds of birds chirping in the distance.
Things that, ironically, enhance silence.
- Heavy raindrops on a metal roof
- Wind rustling in leaves
- Campfire
Similarly, my wife mumbling in her sleep punctuating the silence of reading quietly to myself
Dog yawns
Many have said things that are more immersive sounds or almost soundscapes like rain on roof, but I have a clear favourite short and snappy sound and that is the sound of when a basketball goes clean through the hoop without touching the rim, the so called swish.
Nothin’ but net. It is a very nice sound.
A dog sniffing, snorting, or snoring.
Bird chirping is pretty high on the list! Cats purrring is also way up there, floowedd by raindrops, winds tooling and campfires!
We just adopted a second cat to keep our first (supposedly cat hating) cat company. My new favorite sound is the pitter patter of their little paws as they play together every single morning and evening.
Peeps have mentioned the light rain on a tent, I’ll one up by adding a thunderstorm in the distance.
