The sound of the African savanna on a calm day

[@GeorgeVlad]

Listen to more recordings from the African savanna at kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4XQfWmCnteNnqM

I love it. I feel like I'm in Botswana. I climb out of my roof tent, look out over the savannah, see the sun rising and listen to the fantastic sounds of nature. I feel nostalgic. 😊

[@LauraGYoung]

Finally a recording that's VERY close to what I remember. (Especially the fervent calls of Cape turtle doves to "Work harder...work harder...") Many thanks! :)

[@GeorgeVlad]

Enjoy!

I felt that same "bond" when I visited Tanzania 12 years ago. Very special.

[@GeorgeVlad]

Glad to hear that Christine. It feels a bit like a pilgrimage.

[@TumeloMathonsi-g7s]

I find these very good for studying and working at home. Thank you for that!

[@GeorgeVlad]

Enjoy!

Much appreciate these recordings and I am deeply jealous of you doing this as a career haha. Amazing how much of the character of a place comes through only through the sonic profile. Definitely agree with how certain sounds/vibrations resonator further back/into our being. Personally I notice this with folk music aswell, lately especially playing the flute brings me into contact with my shared historicity with the world. Rupert sheldrake has formalized this notion in his "morphic resonance" tying it together with all sorts of otherwise hard to explain phenomena in nature. Thanks and all the best!

[@GeorgeVlad]

Thanks Fabian, that is a very interesting rabbit hole.

[@Raydensheraj]

Morphic resonance is a failed pseudo hypothesis and just a rehash of the old and scientifically debunked "vitalism." Sheldrake after all these years hasn't offer any verifiable testable material evidence for his zero evidence pseudoscience. I'm not trying to say your an idiot or gullible....but Sheldrake is in the same category as the intelligent design creationist grifters of the Christian propaganda mill 'Discovery Institute." Morphic resonance isn't testable or falsifiable. No experiments by himself or others have been done using the claims of morphic resonance....thus no data exists, no laboratory research....no testable models....and it definitely hasn't lead to any of the material knowledge in Biology, Genetics, Taxonomy or any of the life sciences... It bothers me that we have such great,collected and tested material evidence thru modern Evolutionary theory....and some individuals STILL in 2024 prefer supernatural explanations that haven't lead to anything we test, use or apply....in the field, in the laboratory, in medicine or looking at fossils or even behavior. While evolutionary theory leads to real understanding of nature, behavior, homology, diseases, the immune system, fossils etc etc etc. Im glad Melvin Sheldrake accepts evolution and applies it to his work on fungi. Even his own son rejects applying a pseudoscience without predictive powers, without applications and without testable hypotheses that could eventually transform into scientific theories.

[@GeorgeVlad]

You're welcome 😊

[@sabinapinzan]

George, this soundscape definitely feels like home to me even though I've never been there. So grateful you share this with us. thank you!

[@GeorgeVlad]

My pleasure, happy to hear that Sabina.

[@TuaregDesertBlues]

Nice one

[@GeorgeVlad]

Nice one indeed.

[@justinwynn7299]

Beautiful. This was the sound I woke up to every day of my childhood. In Bulawayo. Savannah but not far from the Kalahari Desert.

[@GeorgeVlad]

Lovely part of the world.

[@JacobHeldt]

Sounds great !

[@GeorgeVlad]

Thanks Jacob.

[@___xid9992]

so much depth for being so calm! :)

[@GeorgeVlad]

That's a nice feature of the landscape - many layers and reflections.

[@gsjandu591]

Relaxing nature sounds great effort 😊

[@GeorgeVlad]

Yes, thanks

[@vincentgainey6847]

Having lived in both the New Guinea rainforest and the East African savanna I can relate to the visceral feeling of coming home in the latter environment. Every time I return to Africa (once or twice a year), these sounds calm and soothe me. Where I live the rest of the time, in a large British city, the city sounds just agitate me.

[@GeorgeVlad]

There's nothing like the sounds of the savanna for human ears.

[@Yv1o5]

Reminds me of my rural home in Mwea, Kenya with the view of Mt. Kenya in a distance.

[@GeorgeVlad]

Glad to hear that.

[@omarazam123]

Love this one! Thanks!!

[@GeorgeVlad]

Glad you like it.

This is one of my favorite of your recordings of the African wilderness. I get that you’ve been to South Luangwa, but have you considered traveling to Mana Pools National Park in Zimbabwe? It’s similar to South Luangwa, but it has some more special traits. From elephants that rear up on their hind legs when feeding on leaves to the painted dogs that were the stars in an episode of BBC’s “Dynasties”, Mana Pools is a place worth traveling to. Who knows, you may even find some good opportunities to record some nature sounds.

[@GeorgeVlad]

I have plans to go to Zimbabwe and Mana Pools, hopefully next year.

[@yachangaming]

idk i born in tropical country but, it is sound more familiar for me, near in my heart, i hasnt go to africa before, maybe this sound created in my DNA

[@hopepper]

Hi, could you please explain how you add the sound wave to the video? And btw, great content, keep it up 🙏

[@GeorgeVlad]

Thanks, I used Adobe After Effects.

[@DewdropsAndBlueberries]

i love it! What is that "gurring" bird that just keeps going nonstop?

[@GeorgeVlad]

That is the Cape turtle dove, one of the iconic sounds of the African savanna.
