David from Low Light Mixes has a very quiet ambient mix called There Will Come Soft Rains that I am really enjoying.
The music in this mix is a collection of tunes I thought would work well with the sound of rain. Most of the rain you hear in this mix was added by me. I hope I didn’t over do it. The listening environment has a lot to do with how the rain is perceived. While mixing in a quiet room I kept worrying about too many rain fx, but then listening in my office at work, I couldn’t hear half of the rain sounds. Hopefully I managed to strike the right balance.
