  • The Tremolo is one of the four calls used by the Common Loon (Gavia Immer). See my article at www.thousandislandslife.com/Ba...

    I'm glad I finally know which bird makes this sound. I've heard it used countless times in songs, movies and video games, it's more overused than Troy Baker and Nolan North together. If this bird had an IMDB page, it would be without a doubt a most prolific voice actor on planet.

      For a more Balearic sound, there's Sueno Latino:

      I feel like there's a bunch more. Aphex Twin used it on one of his albums but I don't remember which one.
      I believe that the sound was from a sample library that was widely pirated in Europe. Apparently it caught people's fancy, and here we are.

    I heard this sound in a movie and liked it from the beginning. As I finally found out, where this sound is from, I found your video, which shows it the best between all the videos on CZcams. Thanks :)

    Just as Red tailed hawks are used as 'voice actors' for just about any large predatory bird, The common loon has lent its call to a wide variety of environments in media, often drastically different to those in its native range!

    For years I've listened to techno music hearing this bird call and wondering what it was (because it would make the best ring tone). Today I'm in Canada and someone showed me a video they took of a Loon's call and now I finally know! Best thing ever! 🤩

    These Loons are common in Ontario and Quebec if not in other locations. This time of Year (Spring) I hear them in the bay close to where I live, It is their common call and it sounds so wonderful on an early morning!

  • @jaschabull2365
    @jaschabull2365 Před 2 lety

    I always wondered what was so loony about loons. Mostly when I'd heard recordings of them it would be the wail rather than the tremolo, so it always struck me as odd that their voices reminded people of hysterical laughter. Hearing it now, I guess I can hear the "Ohohohohoho!"

    Such a great sound. 808 State used this in their song Pacific 202, I've wondered for years what it is and where it's from.

    • @GjaP_242
      @GjaP_242 Před rokem +2

      They make four basic types of vocalizations: the wail, tremolo, yodel, and hoot. In winter, along coastal waters they adopt a quiet time. The wail is perhaps the call most frequently heard. A loon will make this haunting call when it becomes separated from the chick or if its mate fails to return. 1:01

      Hello fellow Newfoundlander! I woukd always here these Loon calls down in the distance from my grandfather’s house. I would hear them so clearly whenever we had a bonfire and it use to freak me out because I didn’t know what it was lol

    I live in the Colorado Rockies at 10,500’ above sea level. I heard this sound one day a couple of summers ago. It happened a few times with long intervals in between calls, so I wasn’t able to catch a recording. I still convinced myself that I was crazy because there’s no way we have Loons here, right? But last summer I was at our property again and I heard it AGAIN!
    Please tell me if I’m crazy or perhaps there’s just a similar sounding bird in the High Rockies (Summit County/Park County). There are a few ponds, lakes and reservoirs in my area.

      I mostly remember it in the English dub of Spirited Away, where it lends a creepy vibe to when Chihiro is alone with the double-sided statue when her parents first enter the spirit world at the train station tunnel.
