Archive.org deliver a windfall of lost music.
If you’re looking for a good way to spend the rest of your week, Archive.org have unearthed a gigantic collection of cassettes from the mid-eighties into the mid-nineties. According to their notes, the collection was saved from the archives of noise-arch.net and donated by former CKLN-FM radio host Myke Dyer in August of 2009. Due to the size and obscurity, the collection hasn’t been properly notated but is said to include cassettes ranging from “tape experimentation, industrial, avant-garde, indie, rock, DIY, subvertainment and auto-hypnotic materials”. Head to Archive now to download the free collection.
I know that some of you will lose your minds over this.

ambient sound favorites
been collecting these when i can handle noise so i never have to hunt for them again when i need to calm myself while eating/doing homework/getting ready for school. music has been too much for me lately for the most part, and while ear defenders are a true blessing sometimes the sound of my own blood in my head is too inwardly focused.
slytherin common room (super underwatery and kinda chilly but comforting, absolutely perfect)
dark cave (bit creepy, lots of drips)
bunk down for the night (also a tad spooky, ft. creaky trees and bug noises)
back porch (really cozy, warm back porch noises. even has the hum of a neon light running underneath all the other sounds. electric hums are so good)
inside a cozy winter cottage (fireplace sounds, creaky rocking chair sounds)
bayou stillness (the water sounds in this one are satisfying. very bloopy. plus lots of southern bug noises)
asleep in the backseat (reminds me of being super sleepy in the back of the car during road trips as a kid)
the bridge of the enterprise (i personally mute channels 7 and 8 but the rest is a+)
medieval market/festival (makes me think of wearing a braided flower crown and eating chicken tenders at the renaissance faire)
comfort (cat purring and wind chimes)
sleeping dragon (basically exactly like the cat one if the cat was a dragon instead)
tornado hits (storm! sirens!)
isochronic binaural beat: energy focus concentration (makes my brain feel sharp and shiny, but can also be incredibly exhausting to listen to. only use when i am in dire need of focus)
