Underwater Realm

"Underwater World" is an atmospheric mix with the acoustics of an underwater biome: a base of deep underwater (muffled low-frequency hum), with whale song and sonar echo (as distant ocean life) on top. The BBC's "Blue Planet," Cousteau's world, scuba diving, ocean depths — an image from contemporary nature documentaries.

The underwater ocean world is the planet's densest "biological soundscape." Hildebrand (Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2009) showed that in its natural state (before anthropogenic noise) the sounds of whales, dolphins and other marine creatures could be heard up to a thousand miles away. Every ocean has its own acoustic "fingerprint," and underwater sounds carry information about temperature, depth and biodiversity. Listening to these sounds activates in humans associations with "another world" — a psychological state close to space travel and mountain summits.

Use this mix for writing adventure and fantastical maritime prose (Verne, Clarke, Lewis Carroll's "Alice"), for podcasts on marine biology and oceanography, for documentary projects, for "another world" meditation, for people drawn to or dreaming about diving, for gamers with underwater games, and for creative work needing an "otherworldly" emotional tone. Pairs with Whale Song (standalone background), Underwater Sleep (deep relaxation), Sonar Echo (technical tint). Also suitable for sleep.
