They should have uploaded their own 8 hour silence track and gotten some Spotify revenue out of the stunt.
I imagine they put the kibosh on that after Vulfpeck gamed it
I don’t want to hear other people’s music anywhere in public. Don’t force your music on me.
But in nature it’s much worse. Noise pollution is harmful to wildlife. Why would you go out to enjoy nature while at the same time harming it?
But in nature it’s much worse. Noise pollution is harmful to wildlife.
This is why I absolutely hate fireworks. They’re terrible for domestic pets (commonly cats, dogs) due to their increased sensitive hearing. Wildlife is dramatically impacted. Birds abandon their nests, and some have even been recorded fleeing in terror and flying over the ocean - where they become too exhausted with no land to land on, so they drown. Other animals of course are terrorised and flee their homes in terror. Commonly, families get separated.
I fucking hate fireworks. They’re so damn annoying, and are traumatising to innocent animals.
If persons want to celebrate holidays, go to professional drone shows. They’re far better, quieter, and much cooler than bullshit fireworks. Fuck fireworks.
I agree fuck fireworks, but also I was shocked to discover that my cat loves the damn things. On July 4th she was sitting at every window trying to watch them. This is the same cat who sprints out of the room the moment she even sees a vacuum
My parent’s cat turns into a pitiful mess during new year’s eve.
Most of my cats have adored them, when they were able to see them instead of just being subjected to the noise. I can’t imagine how wild the experience must be for a creature with only the barest capacity for abstract conceptualization. The great grand-pappy of all laser pointers has shown up, and the humans are fighting him? It’s absolute horror movie shit when they couldn’t see them, though.
Dogs, they’ve all hated them. Even my deaf pupper Godog was real wary of whatever the hell was going on out there.
(Edit: I mentioned this to my sister and she’s reminded me that phoebe and godog both were absolutely mad for daytime fireworks, even once knocking out a window so they could go catch one of the smoke parachutes that was drifting down the beach. I think it was that all the kids were out there clearly having fun with the daytime ones - they were always game for groups of small humans doing anything and would get caught up in the excitement of any event. I now fondly remember one of them getting ahold of a large smoke canister during a photoshoot and leading us all on a merry chase, damned chaos gremlins. I miss them.)
Was at the lake and the amount of people who think we want to listen to their bullshit music is to much. Why I hate camping around people. They go to nature and then ruin it with thier loud music.
In my part of the world you’ll often get campers blasting the radio. Imagine retreating to nature so you can listen to vapid commentary and ads.
If I were a bear, I would attack.
If you’re feeling slightly mischievous you could get one of those short-range radio transmitters (the kind you use to listen to your own music in an old car without an aux input or bluetooth) and override their radio station
If there are other people, you likely mean a campground which is not retreating to nature. Campgrounds are very unnatural manipulated outdoor spaces.
Hopefully you have real wilderness near you where camping is allowed in places you could likely not encounter other humans. Highly recommend the experience if so. It makes campgrounds feel like trailer parks in comparison.
Around here, “campground” can mean anything from a powered site to a patch of dirt at the end of a trail. You’ll find these types at both. Sometimes the worst are at the most remote spots because it’s become very popular to buy a big 4WD and justify the cost by going as deep into the bush as possible, with as much gear and comforts as possible.
If elected, I’ll make it legal to hunt those people for sport between April and August. (Season will vary slightly depending on location.)
I guess that’s the joke. The playlist has 0 minutes because people don’t want to hear any music from one’s bluetooth speaker while hiking.
That’s the joke, but the comments are going both ways on this issue.
Yes, that was the joke.
Because there are large wild animals such as bison, boar, and elk where i hike. It lets unseen animals know I’m near also my preferred trails have very few other people on them.
If I am going to the boonies, I’d rather have an AM radio only for news and weather updates.
A crank handle radio/flashlight combo is a great investment to put in your trunk.
“just crankin the ol radio” as they say
We got one of those after the Northridge quake of 94. Great thing to have!
4’33" by John Cage would be an acceptable addition to this playlist.
Nothing would be an acceptable addition to this playlist. I hope a mountain lion hears the contents of your playlist.
whoosh
The sound of the mountain lion swiping at you. Checks out.
My guy do you even know what 4’33” is?
My bad then, I thought it was a generally liked song and hence all the upvotes. Not going to delete my comment because if that was the case it still stands.
My other comment answers that.
(Psst… It’s 4 minutes and 33 seconds of silence. Or rather “ambient sound” when played live. The musicians don’t play their instruments.)
The studio version might be silence only, but real performances involve the soloist, or the orchestra and conductor prepared to play but not producing any notes from their instruments.
Whether live or not, in either case the performance involves one listening to the ambient sound around them. So playing this song in nature, listeners should be paying attention to the natural sounds around them.
…it’s a bit more than just that: it included the performative ambience of an assembled orchestra - conductor and musicians - managing their bodies, instruments, and staging equipment as they turn through sheet music of their respective parts, as well as that of the venue and audience…
…there’s quite a bit going on in a proper performance which we’ve been trained to otherwise ignore…
That’s the “ambient sound” of a performance

I see you’ve already been told what 4’33" is but I thought I would point out that we are in complete agreement.
WA DNR are fucking great. Recent highlights:
but I would walk, 500 miles, just to hear your, bluetooth stereo.
I like listening to other people’s music when in nature about as much as I enjoy seeing their initials and who they love forever scrawled onto a rock or tree on an otherwise pristine mountain vista. That is, not at all. Fuck those people.

I’m from a country with lots of bears, the mountain rescue authority here encourages having speakers with music playing. Bear bells are pretty much useless, but wildlife is pretty good at picking up human voices. If I’m going hiking alone I periodically yell out random words.
That reminds me of how I was taught to determine which bears are local, by examinimg bear droppings:
- Black Bear: berries and nuts
- Polar bear: fish, seal, rabbit meat
- Grizzly bear: bear bells, bits of Bluetooth speaker, RIA merchandise fabric, bike pedals
“Smells faintly of pepper spray”
This is the recommendation for most places. People just dont want to accept that its safe and want to view you as an asshole.
I feel like this post is more for the trails which are highly unlikely to have bears and have high foot traffic.
I’ve been to Yosemite and walked past people blasting music up a paved trail packed with people to Vernal Falls. There’s no danger of a bear coming for anyone on that trail. I’ve gone on trail runs in the middle of a city park and will come across people who have to blast their music while on a hike. It’s not a common experience, but noticeable.
If you’re hiking through backwoods trails with real bear danger, chances are, you’re not even encountering someone else to be bothered by your music. Does it suck to hike behind someone listening to really bad techno and having to listen to it at the viewpoint? Yeah, yeah it does.
In Québec all provincial parks (SÉPAQ) ban music on speakers. Trails and campgrounds. Those parks have somewhat strict rules, like you also can’t use “mood lights” or decorative lights, but it helps to make the stay a bit more calm.
It’s one of the things that you notice once you’re in a camping or in a trail where that rule doesn’t exist. I went to camp in a provincial park in Ontario last year and it felt weird to hear people’s radios while cycling through the campgrounds.
Like… FM broadcast radios?
Weird.
My wife’s like this. We’ll go camping in the middle of nowhere and the first thing she does is get out a Bluetooth speaker. I came here to listen to the silence and the birds and the trees, not the same music we were listening to in the car.
maybe she is not into camping and compromising?
Compromise by leaving her at home
I’d file for divorce.
I feel this same way about people who blast music from their motorcycle. I ride a Harley, too. It’s fun, and I get it, music enhances the experience.
You don’t want to hear my music, so I wear earbuds. I don’t want to hear your shitty butt rock, so please do the same.
