The oldest rainforest in the whole world! It's amazing that we get to hear how it sounds! Field recording by @georgevlad.bsky.social earth.fm/recordings/s...

A very lazy Sunday with Myrtl. I think she knows I’m leaving soon and she wants to spend as much time as possible with me today.

We spent a whole day tracking lions and when we found them, we decided to stick around so we could record their calls. Somehow we picked the laziest ones around, because they slept a lot, yawned and stretched but did not make one sound until nightfall. When they finally did roar, it was magnificent

Unbelievable colours of the Namib desert at sundown.

And so begins my solo expedition to Namibia.

Just published three new albums recorded in the Amazon rainforest on my website. wildambience.com/albums/ Here's a sample from 'Cuyabeno Dawn' - put some headphones on and enjoy the sound of the rainforest awakening! #soundscape #fieldrecording #rainforest #biodiversity

A well-camouflaged Indian scops owl waiting for nightfall in Satpura Tiger Reserve - India, 2024.

I never get tired of listening to corvids: youtu.be/AoO_UBoc-4E

A very intense soundscape #fieldrecording - thunder and loud insects in the jungle: youtu.be/vY9dPdZ5Vec

Stijn Demeulenaere after a particularly grueling day in the field - Sumatra, 2023. That expedition was one of the most challenging we've been on, but the sounds we captured in those rainforests are worth all the effort, sweat, insect bites, disease etc.

New recording from sound artist and field recordist Gina Lo ✨ "Gentle waves break and flow into the gaps between the stones. Listen to the air bubbles and limestone breathing, the marbled rock crab chirping, and the occasional pigeon flapping its wings and hooting."

Absolutely well deserved Oscars Best Sound win for Dune: Part Two! I’m very proud to have recorded the beautiful sounds of the Sahara for this legendary picture 🔥 #fieldrecording #filmsound #sounddesign

A few minimalist landscapes from Hokkaido.

If someone ever asks you what the best bird is, you can confidently answer: Steller’s sea eagle. That is all.

Well deserved BAFTA sound win for Dune Part Two! The film does sound as stunning as it looks, if I can say so myself.

#fieldrecording the sounds of winter in Japan’s wild North. The snow makes everything sound nice and pleasant.

A superb playlist of Jungle soundscapes just went live! 🍃 With a reflection of the definition of jungle, its use and range of meanings. Thank you to all the sound artists who helped us by sharing their thoughts and experiences and to all the recordists.

Quick stop in Tokyo before I head into Japan’s wild North.

Part 1 of a long, but delightful conversation with Mel from @earth-fm.bsky.social is out today. It started in typical interview format, but when two like-minded ADHD folks sit down to talk, all bets are off. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! #fieldrecording #naturerecording #naturesound

Interview with Vicki Powis - who has been recording wildlife since 1986! She has discovered local dialects in birdsong in her home in Australia. Check out the interview and listen to Vicki's work. earth.fm/interviews/v...

It's been such a pleasure to work on Mufasa The Lion King along a stellar sound team! I'm very proud of the work I did recording beautiful African wildlife sounds in Kenya, Zambia and Zimbabwe. #fieldrecording #filmsound #sounddesign

An extremely cold morning in the Gobi, perfect for #fieldrecording and then a quick drone flight.

This is one of the most challenging #soundscape s I've ever recorded. It took days to reach the desert, temperatures dropped way below zero, the wind made it almost impossible to work without gloves, and to top it off the desert was dead quiet even when the wind picked up. youtu.be/JI8qv0XY3NU

Good morning Istanbul! Feels odd to have running water and heat again after two weeks in the Gobi desert.

Afternoon storm at a Lesser Bird-of-Paradise lek in the New Guinea rainforest. Soon afterwards it started to bucket down & it was a mad scramble to pack up & make the dash back to camp - we got drenched but it was worth it to see these incredible birds displaying! www.youtube.com/watch?v=exE8...

Sunlit rocks in the Mongolian steppe. #fieldrecording the subtle (and sometimes deafening) sounds of wind.

Sun rising over the Mongolian steppe after a long and bitterly cold night.

Popped out to use the outhouse at midnight and was treated to this lovely winter sky.
