Spring Delights 2018 – a binaural podcast featuring recordings I gathered this year during the height of spring. NOTE: This is a binaural podcast; please listen using headphones!
Hi all! I apologize for being absent from my blog for so long (no posts for nearly six months), but I have an excuse … I’ve been working almost non-stop on developing an application for Apple mobile devices that will feature over a hundred of my most immersive binaural soundscapes. It is due to hit the app store in early December and I’ll provide more information around launch time. While work on the app has pretty much dominated my life for months, I have nonetheless managed to get outdoors on occasion, and my current podcast showcases a number of my favorite catches.
Spring Delights 2018 is 24 minutes long and features recordings I gathered this year during the height of spring. It is a fully-binaural production, and is the first of two or three podcasts summarizing this season’s work. To experience the incredible spaciousness of the recordings, please listen using headphones!
Note that I’ve included long un-narrated sections of nature sounds, which should give you plenty of time to wallow in the magic of it all, without me chatting all the time. Aside from my minute-long introduction, I’ve tried to minimize my narration by giving just enough information for each recording to set the scene for personal appreciation and enjoyment.
Let me know what you think of the content, structure and timing of this podcast. And rest assured that your valuable input will influence how I craft future productions.
If all goes well and I get a substantial following, I plan to continue publishing podcasts through the winter months and also during my travels next spring and summer and beyond. My voice is holding up pretty good and I suspect that podcasting will soon become a central focus on my work.
Friends … if you find that my blog has a positive impact on your life, please help support my effort by making a modest donation.
Thank you…I love the sounds of spring. It is so nice to hear them again…when outside my window it was just snowing. I love the narration that you add…
Marietta: Glad that you like it, and that you appreciate the narration. Were you listening with headphones?
no…I need to find them. I’m sure it would be even more amazing with headphones. 🙂
This is so lovely.

Jean-Yves … I’m glad to hear you enjoyed it! And I hope the binaural recordings made you feel like you were really there, in the wilds.
Nice rhythm between the narration and nature sounds Lang. Very enjoyable to listen to.
Thanks Chris … glad you like it.
Love it, Lang, but we need the android app too!!!
If it does OK with iOS, then we’ll do an Android version.
Good to know!
Thank you for the refreshing sounds of nature! You and your podcast are a restorative element to serenity. Thank you for your life’s work.
You’re welcome Camey!
Hi Lang, welcome back!!! So enjoyed this podcast. I was impressed with the sound of the eastern chipmunk. Reminded me of horse hooves on pavement. Quite the alarm system.
yes … the hollow clucks sound like horse’s hooves hitting pavement!
A true delight anytime I am sure but it feels to me especially so on this Fall evening. The windows have been closed for a week and I am missing the night sounds. The podcast (structure, timing) seems perfect. The content and quality exquisite. Sorry I cannot be more helpfully objective. Although I do not own an Apple mobile device, I am thrilled to think of all the many fortunate people who will be newly exposed to the Music of Nature through your new venture. Healing for humans, thus all beings and the Earth. Thank you, Lang.
You might be interested to know that all recordings featured in my app will also be available for purchase on my website as high bitrate MP3 downloads.
This is so delightful! Thanks!
Glad you like it! Do you thinking the timing is good?
I’ve been looking out the window at a dull dreary rainy afternoon. This so brightened my day. Thank you. I think the length of narration and sound is just right. You identify and then let the audience listen. Good luck with your app.
You’re welcome Wendy. If you own an Apple mobile device, I think you’ll find my app very useful for relaxation via nature immersion. Due out first week of December!
