It was dawn - dawn in the desert. Far to the east, beyond this sandy waste, a flicker of light illuminated the heavens, which, since two hours after midnight, had grown densely dark, while the moon and the myriad of stars which had peeped down upon the encampments below. Tomkins and his fellows, had disappeared entirely.

Whale Music

Whales of the Pacific

Today I found charity shop gold in the form of Whales of the Pacific. I've been looking for whale music for ages and was over the moon to find it in a local Samaritans shop. The CD only has one track and is whale song with ambient synthesiser noodling in the background. It's very relaxing and conforms to the Brian Eno concept of ambiance that you only notice now and again. I think it's fantastic.
