Crossing the Desert Ambience and Music | sounds of a desert with ambient music

✑ It was my idea, to travel across the desert. I was slowly starting to doubt my decision as our supplies were dwindling and there was nothing in sight but rock and sand. My companions didn't say anything, but I could see their worry clearly written in their grim faces, in the flat sound of their voices, in their tired looks.
Did I lead my friends to death?
***
I just finished a fantasy book where the company spends a lot of time crossing a desert. There was something magical about it. I don't know what it is about those almost dead places that fascinates me, draws me in, calls to me...
***
If you don't have enough of the desert sounds yet I invite you to listen to one more of my ambiances:

Martia: I create ambiences with original music. My favorite genre is fantasy, but I sometimes venture into sci-fi, horror, history, or plain (but beautiful) natural settings.
I am heavily inspired by books, as I am a total bookworm, by PC games and DnD which my husband loves and talks about. I love long cross-country hikes, that feel like a huge adventure and you can see it in the number of traveling ambiences I produce 😀
You are at the right place if you are looking for one of these: ambient music for reading, ambient music for work, ambient music for sleep, ambient music for studying, ambient music for relaxation and ambient music for RPG, background music for studying, background music for reading, background music for working, background music for writing, or background music for DnD.

There’s something about being alone in the desert, listening to the wind wisp by that’s good for the soul.

[@MartiasMuses]

I feel the same...

[@Xyris911]

You should read “the alchemist “ book by paulo something , it talks about that the wind , the desert give it a try you’ll like it

Indeed, that solitude can be a chance to connect with your inner self and find your true purpose in this life

[@majik_man]

It reminds me of how i would picture in my mind "the end of the night" desert wind howling in the dark with creatures lurking in the shadows..

[@moalisiddiqui]

I grew up in a desert and this brings back a lot of memories for me. There is a certain kind of beauty that a desert holds and along with that beauty is a stark reminder of how hard it is to survive there.

[@redsol3629]

I watched Dune part two in the cinemas yesterday. I felt that watching the characters cross the sands, watching the desert move. That it is time itself, that we move through it but time will always win, always remain.

[@sarapeach2912]

Seeing all desert landscape lovers assembled here …feels like I am with my family. Can we keep this moving . I wish someone just walks across a desert and shares a video..

[@MartiasMuses]

That would be awesome 👍

[@RenzoStefanoPontexRuiz]

Wow, It's a beautiful day outside, There isn't a cloud in the sky and The sunny days here are beautiful. Wow, The desert is dry. In fact, The deserts are dry and Everything is covered with sand. This video is amazing because I feel like I'm in this place. There are so many beautiful places in the world and This is one of them. Thank you very much for this video, I really appreciate it. 🐫🐪🏜️🙂👍

adding this to a music filled, exciting dnd campaign for a part where the party is stranded in the desert and all that they can hear is the wind and quiet music in the distance

[@Alfeco-dm7uk]

Wanderer, know then that this is the desert of your soul and spirit, since it was you who created it. It has been your will and desire to be alone and without company, since that betrayal marked you so deeply so long ago. But, this humble servant wonders why you have also rejected the shadow and the water.

[@s.t.a.r.d.u.s.t.8]

[@diannaanderson]

I lived close to our local sand dunes (before idjit tourists began using their dune buggies there) and between the wind and the sounds of the ocean it. was. wonderful.

[@cristiandraghici6095]

OMG I totally love this! Was looking for some desert ambience music because the book I'm reading now starts in the desert and I LOVE IT (both this book and the whole desert ambience)! Which book inspired this one for you? I'm interested. Also if you like this vibe you should give this one I'm reading a try. Is called Deathborne by S Kay Lanphear (I'm devouring this book, is so good)

[@MartiasMuses]

Thank you! I was inspired by all the Thousand and One Night´s retellings and by The Remnant Chronicles, my guilty pleasure re-read, I was reading the whole series for the third time when I came up with this video

[@mystoreysofstories]

What was the fantasy book that inspired this video? I just read The Stardust Thief a few weeks ago, where the crew spends a lot of time crossing the desert too. I wish this video had been up while I was reading because this is perfect background ambience. 😄

[@MartiasMuses]

I was reading the Remnant Chronicles series - story of a chosen one disguised as romance. I found your book on Goodreads... is it good? Apparently it's inspired by 1000 and 1 nights and I loved all stories that were based on it so far....

[@mystoreysofstories]

@@MartiasMuses Oh I loved the Remnant Chronicles! Those are some of my favorites. :) The Stardust Thief was excellent, in my opinion. I tend to really like desert fantasies.

[@MartiasMuses]

@@mystoreysofstories I was actually rereading the Remnant Chronicles after 5 years and I agree, it was even better than I remember and probably one of the best series I have ever read.
