New Ambience: Salt Marsh
🕑 Added 2020-08-12 15:10:05 +0000 UTCGreetings Patrons,
Frequent listeners know how I love the in-between moments in games - travelling, waiting, camping. So many good stories comes from these times. Here's an actual in-between space. The salt marsh is that odd, natural ambiguity between ocean and grasslands. Some of each, but also neither. Water meets land in a liminal space where both ecosystems merge and exist.
As many of you know, there's a D&D module called "Saltmarsh" but that's a town. (The track "Fishing Village" is actually based on the descriptions of Saltmarsh from that book). This, however, is the actual, ecosystem. So, if your story needed a human-less area for that story, this would fit the bill.
While creating sounds for this I was toying around with whether or not this should be a day or night setting. Long story short (not really), I created both, but only uploaded the day version to the site.
Patron-only Night Version:
For the patron-only night version, the daytime birds have been replaced with an insect and frog chorus and the music is more, I don't know, appropriate is the word that comes to mind.
In total, I have created 5 alternate tracks for this: The patron only night-version, plus ambience-only and music-only versions of that, and an ambience-only and music-only version of the daytime track. I hope you find these useful.
Thank you all, as always, for your continuing support.
Best,
Tim

I really appreciate these extra tracks. I often have explore.org going for background ambience like this, when conditions are right, but it's true nature on that site so it's hit or miss. I'm glad to have these options for when the frogs aren't croaking around the African waterholes with lions roaring in the night...

Thanks for making all the alternate tracks.

Awesome - I especially love that you're giving us multiple options. I'm often looking for recap/intro/interlude music and have already been using some of your other tracks so the MUSIC only versions here are a great addition.

This will be perfect for the everglade/swamp areas in my new Xen'drik campaign, thanks Tim!
