I like frog sounds, I even have mp3s of them on my computer from some cdr I checked out of the library of a local guy who recorded them at summer on Sauvie Island (which is very close to my home). Use them tapes of them live in the band sometimes too.
I've made music inspired by an obnoxious chipmunk who I set out to record. He shut up when I finally got the deck set up to record him (fucker!) so instead I grabbed a broken abandoned popcorn maker that was in the yard and a metal bird cage and tried to emulate what his chipmunk chirping inspired. This ended up the first track "There's More Than One Way to Play a Birdcage" on the first Dead Air Fresheners album "I Try to Show My Love". The sound of fish jumping in a small lake is just awesome. Almost enough to justify the boredom of fishing. The first time I was ever on campus at the Evergreen State College, for a friend's graduation, we'd ate a bunch of mushrooms and become convinced they weren't working, so scored some liquid LSD while the shrooms of course were kicking in. I became separated from my friends and became aware how every dorm room on the campus looked like every other, especially while tripping massively. So I spent the rest of the night making photocopy collages of all the shit on the bulletin boards and wandering around noticing the random patterns that the sprinklers on the campus seemed to have as far as when they came on, and how the birds seemed to converse with those sprinklers as if the birds and the machines had a secret they weren't sharing with us. Of course I decided this was the school where I could actually finish my degree. |

Usually I like whatever sound water makes when it hits something.

technically, but i thought the feel of the thread was spontaneous sounds NOT created by human devices or hands (hence "natural")
