[Series Summary]
Experiments have shown that “insect sounds” have a relaxing effect on listeners. In Japan, the culture of loving “the sound of insects” has been established since ancient times. The definitive series that compiles the chirps of the insect “cricket,” a representative of such chirping insects, has been realized. You can easily listen to and compare precious insect sounds and insect songs. The recordings were made by Hideo Ueda, a nature sound artist, a pioneer of nature sound recordings and a leading field recording artist in Japan. It is a highly valuable work as a digital educational material, digital archive, etc. that stimulates curiosity and fosters a spirit of inquiry, and at the same time, as healing nature sounds, it is ideal for relaxation, sound therapy, deep sleep, chill out, meditation, and background music for work.
