Musician Brian Eno and soundscape ecologist Bernie Krause have collaborated to transform field recordings of animals and natural environments into musical compositions. By blending Krause’s extensive archive of natural sounds with Eno’s atmospheric production, the project seeks to highlight the beauty of the natural world and the urgent threat of biodiversity loss. The initiative aims to foster a deeper connection between the public and the environment while exploring how artistic endeavors can contribute to global conservation efforts and raise awareness for endangered ecosystems.
- Brian Eno and Bernie Krause are working together to integrate animal recordings into musical soundscapes.
- Bernie Krause has spent over 50 years recording more than 15,000 species in their natural habitats.
- The project emphasizes that many of the sounds Krause recorded decades ago can no longer be found in the wild due to habitat destruction.
- The initiative is part of a broader effort to credit “Nature” as an artist on streaming platforms to generate royalties for environmental causes.
- The collaboration serves to raise funds for the charity EarthPercent to support global biodiversity protection.

Thanks for posting! Never heard of Martyn Stewart but seems like he's one of life's everyday angels doing God's work (or just general good works if you're an atheist…which Mr. Stewart is). I really wish this was on CD or LP and not just streaming or to be downloaded. That, and wish there was a CD/LP of Stewart Copeland's soundtrack to the film Wide Sargasso Sea, another beautiful piece of music by Mr. Copeland that was never properly released at all (only as a promo cassette tape thru the film company). ❤☮🌎
