바다 미 (Pada Mi) SEA BEAUTY: Rising Tide I

An immersive binaural listening experience. This 30 minute soundscape of a rising tide begins on a rocky shoreline close to a harbour in Northern England. Against a background of the insistent throbbing of a boat engine the rising tide swirls seaweed as it slowly inundates the rocky shoreline. As the power of the sea builds, the boat engine fades. Then breaking waves take over as the seascape slowly transitions to early morning on the deserted sandy beach of Naksan, South Korea. Sounds fine on laptop speakers - but playback on good headphones is like being there!

There is a legend in Korea that the Goddess Guanyin - or in Chinese 'Guanshiyin' (meaning 'The One Who Perceives the Sounds of the World') - became enlightened after listening to the sea. Relax into this recording and let the calming power of the sea flood over you.

These mp3s are for personal listening only. Anyone who would like to use the material (original wave file recording at 96KHz/24 bit depth) for art project/commercial purposes, please contact me: di.hope@live.com
