Long-form nature and city ambiences with a noise floor low enough to survive mastering. Recorded solo, on weekends, across Ukraine.

Six mornings on the Chornohora ridge, 1 400–1 800 m, recorded from the same three positions so the takes cut together. The chorus starts at 04:02 and holds for about an hour before the valley wind arrives and ends the session.
One person, one rig, no assistants and no post-processing beyond a high-pass and a fade. If a take has a plane in it, it does not ship.
Six mornings on ChornohoraWhat it actually takes to get one clean hour of dawn chorus: three positions, a tent 40 minutes below the ridge, and a lot of discarded takes.
I don't need the sounds of warAir raid sirens are in every Ukrainian recording made after 2022. Here is how I decide what to keep, what to archive, and what I will never sell.
Blimp, ORTF and six hours of windA winter of testing windshields on the Black Sea coast, and the honest limit of what a blimp can save.
Hi there. I’m Bohdan and I record ambiences — forests, rivers, empty streets. I started Sound Weekends in 2021, because every weekend I was walking out of the city with a recorder anyway, and the files had to go somewhere.
I work alone, mostly at night and before sunrise, when there is no traffic left to ruin a take. Everything is 192 kHz / 24-bit, tagged with UCS, and comes with the notes I made on location.
Twelve full-length ambiences from the Carpathians and Kyiv, 192 kHz, same metadata as the paid libraries. Sent once, no series of emails afterwards.
