4.0 out of 5 stars A great way to find out if this stuff's for you!, August 6, 2000

Like everyone else, I've heard a lot about these 'nature sound' CDs. I was curious, but I wasn't sure if I'd actually like the stuff. I bought this sampler to help me decide, and I think it was a good choice. It offers nine tracks of highlights from other 'Echoes of Nature' albums. The tracks may be short (approx. 7.5 minutes each), but it's still a great way to decide whether you like this sort of thing, and what kind of sounds you're looking for. Personally, I was rather impressed at the quality of recording on such a cheap CD! While I'd be willing to bet that the sounds are re-mixed, they all sound quite real, the volume is constant throughout the CD, and for the most part there aren't any lengthy repetitive stretches which seem to plague other albums. If you're curious about this sort of CD, I'd highly suggest getting this one first!

4.0 out of 5 stars This is the real thing, March 3, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Echoes Of Nature: Sampler (Audio CD)

This is a collection of real nature sounds, with no goofy melodies to get in the way. I first learned about this CD from my massage therapist, who played it as background during our sessions. Magically soothing. This CD also works wonders on sleepless nights when you've had too much caffeine. Not every track is perfect: the thunderstorm is not as dramatic as I'd like -- I guess it's tricky to get close to a thunderstorm with recording equipment : ) -- and the morning birds are a little too busy -- I was hoping for something gentler like NPR's morning bird sounds. But the overall effect is wonderful. Highly recommended

I popped this CD into my computer's CD-ROM drive and turned up the volume on my Sony speakers. I wanted to play the CD before I went to bed in an effort to relax my body, soul, and mind. During the first few tracks I dozed off into dreamland. I was awaken during the Jungle Talk track by the sounds of wild animals. I was afraid; I had forgotten all about the CD and I was appalled. Then I realized sitting in my dark room that I wasn't lost in the jungle, but that it was just Echoes of Nature. Immerse yourself in a truly exotic virtual reality experience.
