The BBC's 10-Hour Nature Recordings Are Remarkably Relaxing
Melt into lush soundscapes made from desolate mountain ranges and dense jungles.
BBC’s Planet Earth series has always been an eye-opening insight into the diverse and fragile ecologies that make up our natural world. Now, thanks to these incredible 10-hour videos, they will open your ears too.
“Earth Unplugged” is a series of four 10-hour long “visual soundscapes” focusing on mountains, jungles, deserts and islands respectively. They were compiled using the huge amount of excess video footage captured for the making of Planet Earth II. Typically, they make for a captivating audio-visual experience. Not only is the slowly moving panoramic footage beautiful, but you’ll quickly start picking up all the secret sonic details that make specific ecosystems so distinct. It’s the perfect way to decompress when you want to drift as far away from the office as possible. Check out all four videos below.
