For a long time, I suffered from insomnia & depression. I always tried to fall asleep, while listening to rain sound videos, but instead of soothing me, they were somehow distracting to me, because the composition and quality of the sounds were terrible. As a result, I decided to create my own videos, that I could listen to.
Recording rain sounds were the first approach on the way to the final composition. Because of my yearlong experience in the film industry, I had the ability to not just record them, but to compose different layers into one harmonic composition, that was free of distracting noises and just had the right amount of loudness.
After a couple of weeks, I decided to make the first rain sound videos public to the YouTube community. I started the channel Pure Relaxing Sounds. It was a slow start, but as time went by and the number of videos increased more and more people found out about the channel. People started to write me comments. They mentioned how these videos improved their sleeping habits and that they wanted me to publish more videos. So I did as I was told.
Pure Relaxing Sounds now has a growing community of viewers that love to be on the channel. I’m always thinking about new ways to give them more comfort. It’s not just the rain sounds that I experiment with. Trying to find new sounds that could give the viewer a soothing feeling, is one of the biggest joys I’m experiencing in my work here.
