We have always had a great love of the bush – our first ‘date’ was a bushwalk to a mountain waterfall overhanging with tree ferns. That was eighteen years ago, and even though we have been camping and exploring together ever since, it seems we have barely touched the surface of what nature has to show us.
We find listening to the sounds of the bush very restful and relaxing. This was our initial inspiration; wondering whether other people would enjoy the sounds of the bush as much as we did. So in 1993, we established our business; ‘Listening Earth’, to share that experience.
At the time it seemed an strange thing to do – create CDs without any music on them, but we have followed our hearts, and since then people all around the world have told us how much our recordings mean to them.
Every one of our recordings begins with a journey. People often imagine we have great holidays on our field trips. Well, we certainly enjoy our time exploring nature! However obtaining the quality of material we strive for takes patience and perseverance. We have taught ourselves most of what we know; not only about the bush but also the techniques of our art.
We hope you’re enjoying this blog, and we welcome your feedback!
