The song "Distant Thunder at Tsubojiri Station" has been sold on Pond5

Distant thunder and rain sounds recorded at Tsubojiri Station, an unmanned station deep in the mountains of Japan, have been sold on Pond5, an overseas sound source site.

Why did you decide to sell your music on POND5?

With experience creating ASMR rain sounds on YouTube, I decided to try selling recorded nature sounds on POND5. I will deliver high-quality thunder and rain sounds recorded with TASCAM Portacapture X8 to the world.
