Nature is my Jam
I love the sounds of nature. The dawn chorus, wind moving through the trees, coyotes calling in the dark. For me, those sounds bring calm, curiosity, and a real connection to the world around us.
Nature Is My Jam is a podcast of soundscapes recorded in the quiet corners of Northern Michigan and beyond. I'm Darrin, a field recordist. Each episode is a natural soundscape, shared as it was heard. It's a brief pause from the noise of everyday life and a reminder to listen more closely.

Overnight Recording at Perch Lake
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This is part of an overnight recording from the shore of Perch Lake in Traverse City, Michigan USA. The lake is on forest land owned by the State of Michigan and is very close to the VASA trail system. It is around 2.5 to 3 miles from the nearest paved road, but noise pollution is still present most of the time. This recording has minimal noise pollution as a result of combining two clips from the same night.
I recorded this soundscape with the Zoom F6 Field Recorder and the Audio Technica BP 4025 stereo microphone.
