NeuralAmbience(圖1)-速報App

Recommended: Install via Wi-Fi.

App is Free with one song, rattle and drum. More songs available for .99¢ apiece.

Binaural alpha and theta inducing, 432Hz, meantone temperament, organic music specifically designed for:

• Meditation

• Hypnotherapy

• De-stress and Relax

• Excellent Sleep Aid

• Shamanic Journeying

• Astral Projection

• Brainstorming and Problem Solving

• Programming and Zoning

Also included with the system are optional drum and rattle loops used for shamanic journeying. You can either combine them with the music at the desired volume levels or remove the music altogether if you simply want a journey aid.

The timer is flexible allowing 5 minutes all the way up to 120 minutes in 5 minute increments. Beyond that is the Infinite setting to listen forever.

There’s an optional chime to signal the end of the session.

About the Music

The music is played in A432Hz. There are a lot of supporters for this tuning, rather than using 440hz for standard A. Some make bold claims about why it has a beneficial affect on us right down to some very esoterically scientific explanations. I believe that subjectively, it does seem to have a very pleasing quality about it, and I do choose to retune my instruments to A432 when it doesn’t conflict with other musicians or objectives.

I’ve used algorithms that enforce meantone temperament. This attempts to convert the music to use scales that are based on Pythagorean intervals. Our modern western scale has been modified in to give multi-octave instruments (like piano and guitar) the ability to play the same notes in relative octaves. It also assists in playing with other instruments whose pitch range are relegated to those octaves (like piccolo and saxophone, etc.).

The music uses a binaural feedback system. This technique known as brain entrainment is best facilitated with stereo headphones. A signal at a particular frequency is sent to one ear and a similar but slightly different frequency is sent to the other ear. The result is that the hemispheres of the brain attempt to match the the continual frequency input by adjusting it’s own resonant frequency but ends up picking the frequency difference between the two frequencies coming in thru the headphones. If we target the difference to a specific frequency, the brain will resonate at the frequency most associated with deep thought, introspection and dreaming. This is the state of mind you want for enhanced meditation, shamanic journeying, astral projection and lucid dreaming.

It’s not necessary to listen with headphones because of the many techniques used in the composition of this music, but it could enhance your focus ability when programming, brainstorming, or working with challenging material.

Although this is digital music, the sounds may not sound like instruments you’ve ever heard. The majority of the sounds are actually sampled from instruments that have had sonic manipulations applied to them. Examples are an ebow on a piano; a violin bow on a bicycle wheel. The intention is to try to make the sounds as organic as possible. I love electronic music, but it does lack in something organic. With these samples, there’s an infusion of air passing thru atmosphere. I liken this to the space around us having the substance of consciousness. I believe there’s something powerful in capturing that substance with microphones. If you try to recreate the molecules of a known substance in a lab, you don’t get the ether or ectoplasm, whatever the secret sauce of life is. So… I’ve attempted to bring that into the music to create a truly deep experience. Whether it works is up to you.
