Freesound

Right now, I'm watching President Bush give his State of the Union address, and predictably, the whole spectacle is maddening. Each round of applause is calculated and triangulated for maximum political impact (thanks, television!). My dislike for President Bush seems to intensify exponentially with each passing day, while Dick Cheney is only moments away turning into that ornery old man who only comes outside to yell at the neighborhood kids for riding their bikes in front of his house. Not even the lovely sound of the words 'Madam Speaker' was enough to overcome all of that. As a result I find myself less tolerant of discordant noise, and more in favor of some relaxing sounds. So here are two sounds:

 

Downtempo drumloop

Beach in Fiji

 

Recipe for post-SOTU address decompression

1. Open each in a tab.

2. Press 'play' on each.

3. Set each to a loop.

3. Sit back with a glass of wine and relax.

 

I really liked what Caitlyn was trying to create here so I played with it. It was hard to find piece that went with the drum loop but after and 30 minutes of searching I found this. Thought was an interesting mix. Band warming up?
