This one was better than most, but it still annoys us after a while. For some reason, any CD of the surf we've bought gets after your nerves after about five minutes and is no longer relaxing. I don't know what it is about surf CD's. When we go to Hawaii we always rent a house right on the ocean and we sleep to the sounds of the surf all night. It's almost as if they record a minute or two of surf and just keep repeating it over and over.
Had previous cassette tape of surf sounds and needed same on a CD. Great for relaxing pre-sleep after stressfuls days (hurricane,economy,etc).
I bought this for my kids something to go with quiet time.it's very relaxing. Recording seems so real as if I am actually on the beach.Served the purpose of relaxation.
Great Cd for relaxation. Soft, repetitive surf sounds and wave action, no blaring foghorns.
Yet, this is not another noisy, monotonous hissing ocean recording either. Gibson used a very sensitive directional microphone and sat still like a guru while nature spoke. It is not distracting for massage, meditation, relaxation, sleeping, etc. This is not a music CD. However, turn up the volume while hanging out at home and it can transform your landlocked condo into a beachfront bungalow. Not so easy--think about how frequently planes fly over our heads.
unless it is played too loudly. Dan Gibson consistently mastered, if not invented the art of nature recordings. Mr. Throughout, it is consistently relaxing as well as rich with almost visual detail.
