THUNDERSTORM IN THE WILDERNESS

As the name implies, THUNDERSTORM IN THE WILDERNESS offers the sonic experience of witnessing a passing storm. The album features various sorts of wildlife, including loons, birds, frogs and other arboreal creatures chattering in the foreground. Soon a slow, steady rain begins to fall. The forest creatures grow quiet as the air fills with tension caused by the impending storm. A light thunder rumbles in the distance and before long, you are listening to one of nature’s most replenishing acts – a mild thunderstorm. When it passes, the wildlife resumes its clatter and life continues on as if nothing happened at all. This particular thunderstorm recording was captured by Dan Gibson and is part of the “Solitudes” series.
