This brings up an interesting question. I've been looking for something like this for a while, but I'm weary of getting whale songs 'with background music'...ugh, that would be horrible. Whales with Yanni or some such nonsense. So, Ross (or anyone), are there any disks/tapes out there that do, indeed, have real humpback whale songs without all the commercial garbage to make it sound 'pretty'? I'm looking purely for whale songs, here; maybe scientific recordings along the lines of those voyager recordings of deep space...a pointer in the right direction or a taped copy...I'd appreciate anything at this point. As for finding it funny on first listen, I remember laughing my ass off to Chill Out the first time...now, I wouldn't leave the planet without it. Essential. ---brian Ross Balmer wrote: > I have "songs of the humpback whale" if that can be called found sounds. > Sounds like it might be pretty ambient but I remember when I first listened > to it my mate Ian and I found it hilariously funny for some reason. > > d0ktor > > -----Original Message----- > From: Dominick Winters <xxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx> > To: xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx <xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> > Date: Friday, September 24, 1999 4:11 PM > Subject: (idm) Found Sounds > > >I am sure that more than a few of you recognise the term found sounds.
