SLUMBR

The perfect sleepy sounds app doesn’t exi… 🤔

Meet SLUMBR: An elemental nature sounds white noise machine that harnesses the natural power of sound. It’s carefully calibrated to be conducive to transcendental meditation, NSDR, Yoga Nidra, and deep dream work.

Four sacred elements, each suffused with seven timeless soundscapes. Endless ways to recombine them. Boundless relaxation. ☁️

Dial in Astral and Lucid modes to transform your chosen ambient textures into living breathing soundscapes that evolve organically over time.

Inspired by the spiritual practices and traditions that bind ancestral antiquity to our contemporary, hi-tech times, SLUMBR is nevertheless grounded in sound (pun intended) neuroscience frameworks; psychoacoustic principles and research around binaural beats, natural white noise and its effects on human wellness, and cognition.

SLUMBR’s deep differentiators are two-pronged:

Firstly, from a technical POV: Current white noise offerings come in the form of 8-hour long podcast channels and 10 hour YouTube videos that release new sound files with specific nature sounds in full 8 hour format everyday. This is an extremely inefficient way of doing things, given that these usually are only a few minutes long, looped up to an enormous length and massive file size before upload, just for the sake of fitting the all-night format.

Also, many folks are still buying dedicated white noise machines, which are fine if you just want to blast pure synthetic white noise, but have very limited dynamism and can feel rather “static”. 🙃

Secondly, on the spiritual side: Current apps also offer multiple channels which you can use to personalise and tune your preferred textures (which is great, don’t get me wrong) but they fail to incorporate subtly evolving personalised soundscapes. SLUMBR uses meticulously calibrated deep sine wave ultra-low frequency oscillators to shift and morph sounds subtly over time. This added dimension of subtle, gradual evolution gives rise to a mysterious emergent interplay that, more often than not, creates ever more mysterious and dreamlike textures as your sound evolves..

These subtle changes – not enough to wake you or disturb your rest, but just enough to trigger a theta state while you’re in REM sleep, are often key to successful lucid dream work and astral (dream) body activation.

SLUMBR offers a sense of endless sonic evolution, especially when the Astral & Lucid LFOs are dialled in for more movement,  making it a better bet than expensive, heavy physical machines, or online solutions which needlessly stream data all night. It’s all wrapped up in a user-friendly light-weight package (Low system resource use, under 50mb install, and runs offline).

To run it, download and unzip the folder. Open it, and then run SLUMBR.exe

The app works best with a good quality sound system or comfortable headphones, as opposed to a standard laptop speaker.

Disclaimer: This is an early alpha test build of SLUMBR and might be prone to breakage.

One known issue is that your screen resolution must be at least around 900 pixels in height to run properly. With the web app, the GUI is unfortunately still broken on certain display setups and screen resolutions and. I aim to resolve these issues in due course.
