The sound quality is poor. Turning up the volume on a high end system reveals a very annoying background hiss.

Other than that, it's relaxing(after editing the hiss out). ;)

In the morning, when you wake up to fresh air and the sunrise, you can't help but notice the sounds of crickets, owls, and birds. In Dusk of the Sounds of the Earth series, the noises of dusk is perfectly captured and recorded for its' listeners.
Dusk, when listened, relaxes and helps induce sleep at times. Nature sounds are one of the most beautiful sounds and dusk captures its sounds perfectly in this CD.

This review is from: Sounds of Earth: Dusk (Audio CD)

I recently bought this CD when I moved into an in-town apartment after having lived in a rural area for several years previously. I found I missed the sounds of nature I had taken for granted at my previous location, especially those sounds you hear in the afternoon and evenings.

I don't know where the recording was made, and though I'm fairly certain it was not in the northern forests I am familiar with, it was a close enough approximation for my needs. As one reviewer noted there is some hissing to the recording if you turn it up fairly loud, but as I wanted this CD just for background noise, I keep it turned down low and the hiss is not noticable. I like to put it in my CD player by my bed and fall asleep listening to it.

My only complaint would be the shortness of the tracks, which measure around 30 minutes each. This is a minor matter, however, and can be got around by looping the playback.
