Explore the globe in field recordings

通过实地录音探索全球

Earth Garden takes you around the world using environmental audio from Freesound. Earth Garden 利用来自 Freesound 的环境音频，带你环游世界。

I love field recordings. I love making them. I love them when they’re incorporated into my ambient music. They’re great background noise for working or sleeping. But they’re also great for active listening, focusing in on the fine nuances of burbling brooks or urban chaos. 我热爱实地录音。我喜欢亲自录制它们，也喜欢将它们融入到我的氛围音乐中。它们是工作或睡眠时绝佳的背景噪音。同时，它们也非常适合主动聆听，让人专注于潺潺溪流或城市喧嚣中的细微差别。

Earth Garden gives you a globe to explore with real field recordings taken from various locations. Earth Garden is inspired by Radio Garden (which you should also check out) except, instead of exploring the world via radio, it’s environmental sounds. There are waves lapping at the shores of remote islands in the Atlantic, a chorus of crickets in Tanzania, and rainfall on the streets of Manhattan. (There’s a lot of rainfall, actually.) Earth Garden 为你提供了一个地球仪，让你通过来自世界各地的真实实地录音进行探索。Earth Garden 的灵感来源于 Radio Garden（你也应该去看看），不同之处在于，它不是通过广播来探索世界，而是通过环境声音。这里有大西洋偏远岛屿岸边的拍浪声、坦桑尼亚的蟋蟀合唱，以及曼哈顿街头的雨声。（事实上，雨声非常多。）

The recordings are all pulled from Freesound, which does mean quality can vary, and volume between clips can be inconsistent. It also means that recordings tend to be more concentrated in the US and Europe, especially the UK. But it’s still quite fun and soothing to set the globe to rotate automatically, and as the reticle nears points on the Earth, it transitions to those new sounds. You can even click a button to put some generic ambient drones in the background. 这些录音全部来自 Freesound，这意味着音质可能会有所参差，不同片段之间的音量也可能不一致。这也意味着录音往往更多地集中在美国和欧洲，尤其是英国。但将地球仪设置为自动旋转，当准星靠近地球上的点时，它会自动切换到新的声音，这种体验依然非常有趣且治愈。你甚至可以点击一个按钮，在背景中加入一些通用的环境持续音（ambient drones）。
