environments 11, the final disc in the series, got quite a bit of press. Side A was created to “lower the temperature of any room” through the power of suggestion (i.e. the sounds of a ski chateau). Side B is a counterpoint to “Ultimate Thunderstorm,” though this time Irv actually captured the sounds in the country, as opposed to his city balcony, as you can tell from the farm animals.
