No.23 - Forest Adagio

BBC Sound Effects Vol.23 Relaxing Sounds - This is worth hearing in particular for two icily ambient BBC Radiophonic works, by Messrs. Limb and Mills.

The rest of the album is stereo field recordings some of which are binaural  so you'll want your cans on for this one. And relax...
