Angelic Chorus of Crickets

Someone posted on Facebook a link to this amazing audio recorded by Jim Wilson of crickets slowed down and it sounds like a heavenly chorus of angels singing with complete harmony.  

As Tom Waits states on Jim’s Soundcloud page, “It's like a sweeping chorus of heaven, and it's just slowed down, they didn't manipulate the tape at all.” Crickets have a short life span and it makes you wonder if they hear the recording in this manner as a slowed down process. 

This is a groundbreaking recording that shows without a doubt that we are still unaware of the host of miracles that surround us everyday.  I as most people, have been annoyed by that nagging cricket that gets trapped in the house and keeps you up at night.  After hearing this recording I have a new appreciation for the sound that they create and I will take care to find the cricket next time and put him back outside to join his friends in their glorious singing.
