Default Bloop

see its become related to the mythic city of R'lyeh by fantasy and Lovecraft buffs; so it's not _really_ off topic.

Bloop wiki entry

but doesn't it have a strange sort of harmony to it? I actually enjoy listening to it, even if it is kinda weird creepy.

Oh! and with noise reduction too!

Bloop with noise reduction

brings out its atonal yet harmonic qualities. Sounds like something from Cthulhu to me. Atonal harmony, non Euclidean geometry.

I'm a big Bloop fan.

I think there's creatures down there that we can't even imagine.

Okay, that is amazing..... But also incredibly disturbing.

Ladies and Gentlemen, let's all give a round of applause for..... The Kraken!

Oh and BTW, here's some more, though for some reason NOAA only posts them in compressed forms, running at 10x-16x normal speed, maybe just to be miserly with bandwidth, I dunno.
