Rain Stick and Ocean Drum

The flow and patter of seeds in a slowly turned rain stick, with beads rolling across an ocean drum behind it. Synthesised, not recorded.

30 minNo headphones needed

The same recipe with another seed: the raindrops, the order of the birds or the path of the chords change; the rules and evidence level stay the same.
