Listen to real places. Learn where they are. Help protect what you’re hearing.

STEP 1: SELECT YOUR PATH

Enter a curation of source-authenticated recordings, organized by exact geography, sonic intensity, and ecological character.

Every soundscape is an invitation to a real coordinate. Travel to the high-altitude plateaus of the Simien Mountains in Ethiopia, where the Jinbar River plunges into gorges unchanged since prehistoric times. Or immerse yourself in Khao Sok National Park, a Thai rainforest 160 million years in the making, possessing a bioacoustic complexity that rivals the Amazon.

STEP 2: Meet the source

We do not offer background static. When you listen to water moving through a canyon, you are given the history of that gorge. When you hear a dawn chorus, you are given the specific coordinates, the bird species composing the biophony, and the real-world pressures they face.

Learn the story of the Oirase Stream in Japan, protected by the Ministry of the Environment as an irreplaceable cultural soundscape. Trace the path of the Naryn River as it flows 700 kilometers across Kyrgyzstan, sustaining millions of lives while buckling under climate pressure. Or experience the visceral rush of Helmcken Falls in British Columbia—141 meters of uninterrupted freefall, named for a pioneer physician who probably never imagined anyone would one day listen to it through headphones while commuting. Specificity is the beginning of attention.

STEP 3: CLOSE THE LOOP

We believe wild soundscapes have earned their royalties. A direct portion of your membership is routed to trusted conservation partners—including the WWF, Conservation International, and The Nature Conservancy—dedicated to protecting the exact ecosystem you are listening to. You select where the funding goes.

This is what transforms passive listening into active preservation. The sound connects you to a place; your support protects its future. The sounds of the wild, now listener-supported. Not as a slogan—as a structure.

  • WILDSOUND is the only ecosound app that identifies every soundscape by its real-world location—named place, coordinates, ecological context—and ties listening to active conservation support. Most apps offer sounds. We offer sources, stories, and somewhere for your support to land.

  • Every single one. No stock audio, no AI-generated soundscapes, no generic "forest" or "river" labels. Every recording is field-recorded, authenticated, and geolocated to a named location.

  • Research in environmental psychology suggests that named, specific places generate deeper emotional connection than anonymous categories—and that connection is one of the strongest predictors of conservation behavior. We name things because naming is the beginning of caring. It's also the beginning of knowing what you're actually listening to.

  • Yes, and in a direct, named way. A portion of every subscription is allocated to NGOs such as WWF, Conservation International, or The Nature Conservancy—and you choose which organization receives your support.

  • Yes. WILDSOUND is available on both the App Store and Google Play.
