Two 25-minute tracks of a brook in Ann Arbor, MI., USA. Made during the Covid-19 quarantine period; there is little man-made background noise in these two tracks due to the reduced human activity.
Recordings were made using a Neumann KU 100 mannequin head microphone (a microphone shaped like a human head and having ears, inside of which are microphones). This will put you 'at the water's edge' if you use headphones to play these files.
Track 01 (Babbling Brook [headphones required] is almost entirely natural sounds (water, birds, dogs). This track is recommended for relaxation.
Track 02 (Babbling Brook and Helicopter Fly-over [headphones required]) is a continuation of track 01, however a very realistic fly-over occurs at roughly 12 minutes into the track (with headphones you will hear it fly over your head, from the right to left ear)
