I look forward to sending you some sound clips. As a developing guitarist, exploring sounds, effects and silence, are an important part of that learning process.
More importantly the sounds of every day life. As much as I drink in the changing views of the countryside and season when walking with the dog, the sounds as as important and enlivening.
The change of acoustics and atmosphere as a storm approaches and silence descends before the rain. The cessation of birdsong replaced by rainfall, only to return to mark the passing of the storm.
Putting the dog out before bed, listening to the distant frogs and toads calling or crickets on a hot night.
When walking with my grandkids my daughter and I will often get them to stay quiet as we walk, then ask them to listen. Then ill ask what they can hear and they say "nothing" in response to the silence. And we say isn't it beautiful.
The sound of the forest floor under your feet.
So many more possible examples. But I will try to record something in the next few days.
Many thanks for sharing.

). It is not interesting. It is not meditative. It has no intended artistic merit. It is just the layers of sound encountered daily in urban life.
