And Now, Close Your Eyes
We return to the world of darkness a hundred feet beneath the surface, navigating our way through a series of subterranean lakes on a simple rubber boat. In the sea of black above our heads, are stalactites — be careful for your head — and in the black below, water cradles our ride. The caves perform for us a symphony of sound rarely experienced by the human ear, one veiled by absolute darkness and wrapped in silence. But by now, you've learned that well.
Following Cave Water and Cave Chimes, we present to you the third and final soundscape based on the Karst Cave sampling session held in 2014. Now relax, put in your favorite headphones, turn Animate! on, and close your eyes. Look into the darkness and travel the water just as we did, but from the comfort of your chair.

Man, I love me some of that relaxing, chill water. If you want something calm and not annoyingly loud, this is for you. 10/10!
●
Ah! - I like the pitter=patters of the waters at high pitch as I'm dozing off for the night. This goves me a chance to forget every worry I've had and just embrace for new ones, and forget those! - Very calming!
●
This makes me feel as if I'm hanging out with Gollum in his cave just before Bilbo comes and disturbs our darkness and peace. Truly a precious feeling, thank you.
●
This took me back to a visit to Penn Cave in Pennsylvania with my sister and her family, years ago. Now daydreaming about a return visit. Thanks!
●
Stunning sound of a gentle drip is deeply calming - thank you.
●
Am I the only person here who likes to make smooth curves with the sliders?
●
I love to hear the sound of water flowing, and the noise of the paddling brings back good memories of wading in the water.
●
The 'Paddling' preset <3 ... I paired this with the The Source preset on Cave Water. Did I mention that it was amazing!?
●
I love listening "Dark Water" while coding. It gives me the concentration and relaxes my soul. Thanks for creating "myNoise". I hope you will be more famomus in the "World Wide Web".
●
Just sitting in a cave, nothing to worry about except the bats that live in here.
●
This is really nice and a bit comforting! I feel like I'm swimming in the pool!
●
This soundscape does a great job distracting me from my tinnitus, and it's also helping me focus. I imagine sitting on the stone shore of an underground river where no one and nothing can bother me :)
●
Good for meditating.
●
This setting sounds like an area of the cave that is relatively far away from water ^^
●
I don't know how I could even function without this site! This is one of my favorites to study and finish assignments to.
●
I'm using this one to block (mostly male) voices in the office. Works great.
●
I don't know what I have made but I love it...
●
This noise generator makes me feel very relaxed.
Perfect meditation sounds to soothe my stress & anxiety.
●
Used this preset to pray and meditate deeply reciting mantras with inhalation & exhalation. The slider animation provided in the end some cristal clear random drops which produced a very pure, piercing sound that had me tingling all through. Some beauty! The lord has blessed you to provide this resource for us!
●
This is one of my favorite sounds on the site. It’s so calming. It feels like a blanket for my anxiety if that makes any sense.
●
For some reason, this, paired with the creepy whispers in "Evil Charm" is putting me right at ease. Would definitely recommend it. The distant monster growl is pretty cool too. It's bringing up a few questions about my current state of mind really...
●
I love this website and it boosts my creativity a lot. This exact frequency does not do that it sounds like I'm drowning. What a night.
●
I've known about this website for years. It always makes me happy to come back to it after a long hiatus and still see it blossoming wonderfully. I always get a little scared thinking, "Oh my god I'm worried it's not gonna be here I gotta check!" This has always been one of my absolute favorite presets. It's a wonder it was ever created, and I love it so much!
●
Blocks unwanted street noise and lulls me to sleep with the sound of gentle rain.
●
This generator really helps me to focus and tune out the surrounding noise when I'm working in class or at home. I just really love how the water flows.
●
I love this preset I created... It feels not only like underwater cave currents but also has some eerie sounds & psycheldelic tones, strange noises emanating that would seem impossible to reproduce naturally. One can only be left to wonder all the mysteries that happen inside those magnificent caves!
●
I may not be alive if it wasnt' for this website. Thank you for this.I will donate once I am able to, I promise. This is too good to not support.
●
I was in a cenote in Yucatan a couple of years ago that sounded a lot like this. Refreshing and cool, out of the tropical heat.
●
This is the generator with a range of sounds, but no annoying bloink noise every few seconds. Enjoy - very relaxing.
●
I love this with the Tape Speed control on slower - creates a sensuous, syrupy sound that seduces the ears.
●
Love listening while painting! <3
●
I was looking for river sounds to serve as inspiration for something I'm writing and block out my brother listening to music upstairs. And this? This is the best one I've ever seen by far. But some settings, like the White preset, reminds me an awful lot of my school showers...
●
It's amazing, honestly. - HaNoWSss
●
My ears get easily tired of constant sounds, but I need some pleasant noise to help shut out the chatter and distractions at work. The murmuring water and the rain sounds together make that pleasant sound environment for me. I use them with my own presettings that are easy on ears (lowered volume on high and low end frequencies).
●
This and Aeternitas... Together they create one of the best experiences I've heard so far. It sounds like the kind of place I would not mind to be forever.
●
By far the only thing that gets me through work.
●
Everytime I visit this site, I wish that I had a credit card so that I could pay back at least a small bit of what it has given me. I swear, as soon as I get a credit card, I'm donating whatever amount I can donate.
●
Who would've thought that one slider could hold such atmosphere? Very well done with this noise generator, the more I listen to this setting, the more I hear, and its fantastic. I absolutely love falling asleep to this alongside Twilight; definitely my two favorites.
●
When I first listened to this, I pictured myself as a Mermaid swimming around, following strange visitors that came through the cave but kept myself well hidden if they tried to see me. This and Subaquatic Dreams bring out the mermaid in me for whatever reason, and I love it!
●
It's so relaxing! It places me in an other world, deep in some unexplored cave!
●
Hearing this fills me with peaceful calmness... So relaxing...
●
This is wonderful for when I write, so lonely and peaceful. My all time favorite, my go to!
●
Whenever I'm upset and my usual go-to music doesn't do the trick to calm me down, this never fails to help me relax and I love it.
●
I made a single dripping stalactite stand out.
●
Wow, I can actually smell the dampness of a cave. There is obviously some memory embedded that this sound is calling up and causing my mind to create the smell. Quite amazing!
●
Relaxing and divine. Would recommend for studying.
●
Cave monster + extra water noises = getting a lot of work done.
●
So lonely and beautiful... I love this one so much.
●
This is my go-to track when I can't handle the temperatures in the office anymore. My brain thinks it's in a cool subterranean cave, and my body cools down noticeably. Thank you so much for the perfect soundscape for hot days.
●
It's amazing what the sound of water does to the human brain!
●
This is perfect for studying! I combine this with a Studio Ghibli piano cover collection and BOOM! I'm done!
●
My absolute favourite myNoise generator. So calming, and yet myterious.
●
This is my favorite, I listen to Dark Water most nights :)
●
The Cave Chimes and the Dark Water together are lovely and relaxing. :D
●
This just really help me when I need to be alone but don't want to be in silence, this is just amazing!
●
This sounds makes me feel like I swimming in a cave with a melodious drumming like sound in the back, that really helps with the focus!
●
This helps my migraines so they're easier to deal with. I love Cave Water so much and this reminds me of those trips I went on when I was younger.
●
This, together with Yakutian voices, is PERFECTION. I absolutely love the combination. It's incredibly relaxing and helps me focus on my studies and meditation. Thank you.
●
I love this one. I feel like I'm in a cave in a Miyazaki movie, listening to the fish below me.
●
I really love this generator, it is great to sleep to. The soft babble of the river creates a nice white noise while the occasional droplet falling off a stalagmite and hitting the water just makes the whole thing perfect.
●
I mix the light blue mids with the harmonic binaural beats and it is HEAVENLY
●
I mix this one with the Deep Focus playlist on Spotify, and they just seem made for each other.
●
Sitting in a cave by the water, listening to the sounds. Don't get dripped on. ^-^
●
I have a nasty continuous whistle in my right ear, in sync with my heartbeat, and by putting one of these on my computer, I forget about the blasted tinnitus and can work and enjoy the day. THANKS. Mig
●
Water noises are really pleasent, between cave noises and rainfall, I somehow prefer this for working purposes. It keeps the mind neutral, and reminds me of "batcave". Thank you Stephane Pigeon for offering this service!
●
Very relaxing to put this on while I draw or just shut my eyes and listen for awhile to ease my mind.
●
I live in kind of a rough area, so there's often urban noise outside- you know, the stressfull noises of arguments, sirens, the occasional firework and the occasional party. I put this on and I can pretend, just briefly, that I'm not living in Plymouth, but I'm living in a cave, by a subterranian lake. It's super relaxing. I love it.
●
As a recreational scuba diver, this setting transports me to the surface of a cave dive, emerging from the water into a pristine cavern, quiet and alone.
●
Really great for sleeping
●
This is truly awesome. The preset 'Hot Springs' gives me a feeling of warmth and relaxation. It takes me to a place where I can enjoy imagining myself sitting at some rocks in the cave in the picture. It's perfect.
●
I am lying in my bed with heavy headache. I take some pills and with that great sound, my pain is flowing away. Thank you.
●
It makes you feel good. Wish I could hug and kiss that girl who sent me this awesomeness. :) <3
●
Wow. I put this on, added the Electric Counterpoint by Steve Reich, and my writer's block was finally broken. Plus, it finally made me feel peaceful - a feeling I had long forgotten.
●
'Lively Waters' is what comes to mind hearing this. It's a great stress reliever for those days I can't be out swimming or finding brooks in nature.
●
This sound is amazing. I really feel like I'm back in a cave again. It reminds me of the trip my family and I took when I was little.
●
I love it, one of my favorite sounds.
●
I absolutely love the waters and rain machines on this site. Which this one is slowly becoming my favorite. I love softer sounds so I started out with the Lachryma preset with some subtle changes aand let animate do it's thing, but I recommend running with the bat track from Summer Night too. It adds to the experience immensely. Incredibly calming and delightful.
●
I suddenly want to be whale.
●
So soothing. A lovely, meditative soundscape.
●
Wow! Just WOW!!!
●
I love this custom noise. The white rain among others are my favorite, but this one has become my new favorite. The sound of trickling water and treading/light splashing of water takes me to a whole new level of relaxation :)
●
As someone prone to anxiety and depression, I use music as a way to stabilize my emotions. But, as someone who works in an office and is also very sensitive to noise, I need word-free sounds to block out conversations, phone calls, etc. This website is an absolute Godsend. I merge Dark Water with Himalayan Bowls and Ice World and I am calm and focused. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
●
I take a long time to get to sleep, so I imagine myself in relaxing places to pass the time until I sleep. My favourite place is a massive set of caves under a desert, and this generator takes me right there, to peace, solitude & safety. Perfect.
●
This is (again) an awesome generator. You don't only feel the chilness of the cave, but you even start to smell the mossy dampness and slight touch of mold. Unbelievable.
●
Awesome! Stphane tops himself again! You can feel the room get just a little bit colder; perfect for summer!
●
I can't describe how much I love subterranean landscapes... even though I have never been there myself. I just love it, caves with water, you know? I've never been much of a people person and the sounds just makes me feel isolated from the world and it makes me relax. Thank you so much for this sound! :)
