DARK FOREST Ambience and Music - sounds of dark misty forest with ambient music
✒ Go into the forest he said... it will be easy he said.... Damnit Rakeesh!
As I pull his limp body under yet another fallen tree, I look up and the trees look back. The sun is still out so I need not fear them yet but I know that come nightfall those same, peaceful trees, will come for us again. They do not like strangers tramping through their land...
My back screams at me to stop, my feet beg me to rest but I cannot.. not yet. It's not far now.. the edge of this god's forsaken place.
Above me, the trees creak and groan.. straining to stretch their limbs down towards us... I dare not look up.

I hope you enjoy this (yet another) dark fantasy ambience. You can hear sounds of the forest, owls hooting, trees creaking, wind blowing leaves whispering, blended with original ambient fantasy music.

Martia: I create ambiences with original music. My favorite genre is fantasy, but I sometimes venture into sci-fi, horror, history, or plain (but beautiful) natural settings.
I am heavily inspired by books, as I am a total bookworm, by PC games and DnD which my husband loves and talks about. I love long cross-country hikes, that feel like a huge adventure and you can see it in the number of traveling ambiences I produce 😀
You are at the right place if you are looking for one of these: ambient music for reading, ambient music for work, ambient music for sleep, ambient music for studying, ambient music for relaxation and ambient music for RPG, background music for studying, background music for reading, background music for working, background music for writing, or background music for DnD.

Hi! Thank you for all your amazing comments! As a few of you asked about it, I uploaded DARK FOREST on other platforms. Unfortunately, I couldn't upload it as is, it had to be changed a little bit and also made shorter. I hope you will like it :) A version of this ambience is now available on: Apple Music/iTunes: music.apple.com/us/album/dark-forest-ep/1582306641?uo=4&app=itunes Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/0nw1pVVlrB0IgEp9eGr5yw Also, there were some questions about using this ambience in your own projects. If you have any questions regarding that, please contact me via email (in the information section of the channel).
Warrior cats real

Shhh, we're in the calm side of KZhead, I'm so happy cuz no one can find us.
Found you >:D
This is nice 👌🏻
Ur bad
I'm kidding
WHAT? WHAT'S THAT YOU SAY? QUIET? WHY QUIET?
I'm a 60 year old Heavy Metal man. I put my ear buds in at night going to bed and this sounds so beautiful. I think of Angel's helping me to find my way through this Earth. 🙂😴😴
Michael, thank you for your beautiful comment. I want to sit down now and create some more. 🙂
@@MartiasMuses Please do! This one sounds great and it's relaxing.
@@NT-sx2bd Thank you ❤️
Aww, that's fantastic!
A man of culture I see.
This is a huge help in writing my novel. It has really inspired my imagination. The subtle music in the background along with it instead of just pure ambience is great.
Thank you 😊 I am so happy it helps your imagination... That's what I was hoping to create 😉
What's it about?
@@peytonray7366 fiction. lol
now i wanna read it lol
@@peytonray7366 It's actually turning into a scifi trilogy. This music is particularly helpful with a specific setting in mind.
If you’ve never read a horror/thriller novel to spooky ambient music then you have to try. Especially at night, maybe with a candle going in your peripheral for atmosphere… Nothing beats that type of mental zone.💀🖤
Indeed. Love finding comments that talk about creativity and ambience. I have a Playlist here called Ambience.
Yes!!! I’m currently reading The Troop by Nick Cutter and listening to this!
Any recommendations?
Using this to write my dark fantasy character's journey through a mist-wreathed forest. There will be painful deaths 😔 This ambience is perfect. Thanks for uploading!
That's awesome! It's exactly the setting I imagined when creating the music. I wish you a lot of inspiration. 😉 Thank your for your conment
So, there’s no mist in the forest just around it? I think you may want a different word to convey your image.
I wanna read it pls let me
@@princessinlove14 _Loool_
From watching you play warlock for years I'd love to read it lol
I am highly selective....and particular when it comes to music. Most 'relaxing' music irritates me with high pitched pan flutes, depressing piano, or bells and whistles. This however, is .....perfect. Calming, seductive, dark, comforting, inspiring. Just my style.
Thank you, I am so happy you like it 😊 I have the same problem with relaxing videos and it was one of the reasons I started creating those 😉
@@MartiasMuses thank you for making this, listen to this every night. Wish there was a lot more variety when it comes to this type of ambience but it’s hard to come across. So thank you again for this!
@@zloyalty1534 thank you, it's a pleasure to know you enjoy it this much 😊
Agreed
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life.
There's a solemn solitude in silence stranger. Don't forget that you are a part of this world as much as it is a part of you, and this world never forgets and is never quiet.
I know you probably dont get many comments like this but im a depressed man in early 20s and listening to this music while smoking a joint with an incence lit and thinking about nature really helps me stay alive
I too have had depression since I was seventeen, I am now fifty six. Smoking pot relaxes me, and it helps me sleep. I had twenty five years of insomnia, and after giving up on regular medications (too many side effects), I now have it most nights. I live in Victoria Australia, where to grow, sell or possess marijuana is still illegal. Eventually our government will see the light on the many benefits of cannabis, and will most likely tax it. But at least people will have the freedom to use it for medicinal purposes, or just to relax. As for this beautiful music, I am a writer of science fiction /fantasy books, and I can see all my wonderful worlds etc… peace be to you, Blessings. :)
I'm a 77 years old folksong and rock and roll classic from the sixties woman from Paris, France, not Texas.......... THANKS my friend !
Thank you for being here ❤️
When you read this, always remember: "YOU are wonderful, beautiful and lovable. You are special and it is great that you exist" ❤️
This is truly beautiful. Was beginning to have an anxiety attack at work, and I stumbled across this. It's really helped me calm down and find my center. Thank you so much. Hope whoever reads this has a wonderful day.
Man this isn't dark music I find this relaxing and I love dark forests
Thank you, I am happy you do! 😉
I think maybe this is just another type of dark music. Dark as in finding comfort in darkness when you are feeling low or overwhelmed. At least, that's how I feel.
@@chaoticmind4886 yeah I guess 🤔
My D&D party recently heard this and we all legit just got distrcted by the track... Best session ever lol
I am happy you had a good session with my ambience 😃
Man I really do love rain. Ever since I was a kid I appreciated a rainy day over a sunny one. Something so peaceful about it. Sucks to say that it doesn’t rain where I live that much anymore.
It's raining here right now and man, it's beautiful, the air smells so fresh and little bit of flowers that grow in the yard.
Have you ever heard about a place where always raining ? This place is called CHIRAPUNJI in India ! Iam welcoming you to this beautiful place ! You will love it. Always raining!!!
Finally found someone Who have my taste
I have a specific weak spot for this sort of environment, so this is an amazing piece for putting me in the right state of mind for writing.
So do I ☺️I am happy you like it too 😉
I thought I'm the only one have this weird kind of feelings...emotions... its a mixed up of Anxious and deep calm
Dark isolated forest with an eerily music? Yup. Sounds like a chill place to do homework alone. Not weird at all....
The more I become disconnected with people, the more connected I get with digital nature.
Me too. Most people suck
Real sound of Brazilian Waterfall in Teresopolis kzhead.info/sun/jdefmahqfpWHhYU/bejne.html
@Courtney Gillespie Why not connect with actual nature?
I love it so much ! Much love from France 🥰
❤️
Immersed myself in a fantasy world😆
That´s the best compliment
This is perfect for helping me get in the mood for writing my dungeons and dragons character for a future campaign, the atmospheres brilliant for sorting out his past
Tired: Listening to music Fun: Listening to music Sad: Listening to music The music is great
Music IS great ❤️
You just helped me write a horror tale about a rural legend from Honduras in less than an hour. Thanks.
I am happy my creation was helpful :)
@@MartiasMuses And it will still be 👌
Music in this video is wonderful. It's like there is a whole world hiding behind that misty clearing in the woods. Sad, hopeful, unsettling and beautiful. A promise of a journey of a lifetime.
Cant believe how you just put into words everything im feeling when i listen to this!! Amazing!
@@unclekarl4512 Thank you, I am glad to hear it.
Well... I’m gonna reality shift with this. Thanks for uploading!
Thank you for your comment ;-)
Gonna use it for my D&D campaign 👍
Cool! I wish you a good game! :)
What is the D&D ?
Dungeons and Dragons - a role play game 😉
@@MartiasMuses Thanks
NP 😉
I wouldn't mind being buried or laying my ashes to rest, having a mossy, faded tombstone inscribed with my name or family crest to slowly become one with the forest.
This reminds me of another channel I'm subscribed to called Cryo Chamber where they feature a whole variety of ambient artists. Needless to say, I'm absolutely in love with your work- you've made a subscriber out of me!
Thank you, I am happy you enjoy my work. ☺️ I am also a fan of Cryo Chamber, their work is very inspiring 🙂
Same :)
writing a horror story about nature reclaiming what man has taken-- this playlist fits the vibe perfectly, thank you :)
This helped me meditate and ground for working my spell work with a old forest god. Thank you for this.
listening to this whilst reading is the most immersive experience you could have
This soundscape increases my productivity at work... it's interesting yet not distracting. Thank you!
Is raining up and the creature's tell their tales while the trees take notes.
I couldn't sleep well, I turned to this and I felt so much peace, some of the best I've felt in a while, you won't believe how much I cried. I hope all is well in your lives and that you might find peace
We are glad you finally managed to feel some peace.I ve been in the same position in the past many times.
As I write, I begin a relationship with my characters, some are friends, some are foes, but it makes the relationship real when you can hear the setting of where you are meeting them.
I am currently having trouble with the sound when i play games so i found this for a bit of ambience while I play, I'm already loving the vibe.
I am so happy you enjoy it! 😊
Perfect for a good mystery one-shot game of D&D where the story ends in a "WTF just happened?"
Using this as writing ambience in (what's supposed to be) a harrowing, lonely moment in the climax of the story. It's perfect, thank you for this.
Thank you for sharing ☺️ i am always happy to know my art helps other artists ❤️
I am reading The Haunting of Hill House and this music have been perfect! Thank you so much, greetings from Colombia!
Hi, I am glad you enjoy it :) Have a wonderful day!
I'm writing a thriller novel and this is exactly the dark, misty, mysterious forest it's set in. The dark music and sound setting is perfect!!!! Thank youuu!
Thank you ☺️ I am happy you found what you needed!
Using this for a horror-themed d&d one-shot. Love it!
It s wonderful, heavenly 🤎💫
The dark is actually very comforting to me
Same same 😉
Another novel writer here. This helped me capture the sadness and mystery of a people fleeing through a dark, foreboding forest after a hard battle. Thanks a bunch for this one :3
happy to help :) thank you for listening
Can you tell me more about your story
@@meofcoursenot.2104 Well, the general overview is: it's a dark fantasy story where you watch the mc become the villain. So lots of dark arts, evil creatures, and morally questionable choices.
@@kainslegacy7 can you provide me with more details maybe through Instagram or Twitter
Very relaxing and good for writing. Thank you for the upload.
Thank you for your comment :)
This always helps me fall asleep. thank you!
I fell in love with this masterpiece. Perfect mix between all the parts.
This helped me write the first chapter of my novel so well. It has the same calm yet unsettling feel I was going for, and helped me feel the story so much better than I usually can.
I am happy it helped you 😊
This is quite lovely. Our very own piece of outside. Thank you.
Beautiful series🥰
01.16.24. Found this song. Mystical, fantasy, music! Yay! 🙏💜
Yes! This is it. Dark and moody perfect for my story! Thank you!
I FOUND THIS SO PEACEFUL AND SOOTHING THANK YOU SO MUCH SHANNON FROM MICHIGAN 💕
Thank you for your comment :) I am happy you like ;-)
I Love This Video. It's Breath Taking.
I love this in a way I can't fully phrase... yet. Thank you Martia and her muses 💚🤎🩶
Found this video about two months ago-and it’s been a part of my bedtime routine ever since! It haven’t had any insomnia episodes ever since I started playing this to fall asleep. I was even able to sleep in a car during a recent roadtrip thanks to the soothing sounds! Thank you for helping me get the rest I need ☺️
Thank you for the comment. As someone, who used to have troubles sleeping for years, I am so happy my work helped you ❤️
your commitment to excellence is evident in every frame! ️
Extrem good ambience. I use it to write my fantasy book drama chapters. One of the best I ever listen.
I am happy you enjoy it :)
❤️Perfection. Spritual/emotional cathartsis, calming. Tranquil escape. ❤️
Holy cats!! I'm so glad 25,000 other people love what I love! 🤣🗝️❄️🤍You are excellent, Martia! Thank you! Similar to your beloved Night Quest vid. 🥰🥰🥰
I fall in another world when I listen it❤
Thank you. This really helped me find some time to think about me.
I am happy to hear it helped you! :)
Whenever im stressed i listen to music its very calming and relaxing
Oh yeah, this is exactly what my DnD campaign needs! Definitely going to be using this for my next cult-inspired game!
This song was made for my inner me.
So far, this is one of the few ambiences I’ve found that I really like. It’s helped me settle and really feel in the mood to read. Thank you:) 🖤
Thank you. I am happy it helps you 😊
@@MartiasMuses Not a problem. Using it again to read:) may even use it for writing..
Amazing. I listen to this everyday while studying. Cheers buddy and thanks for the video.
Thank you for your comment. It made my day :) Good luck with your studies ;-)
LOVE LOVE this ambience
Thank you. :) It helps a lot. People need comfort this days.
It's 8 pm and I've lost my day :/ Anyway I need to prepare for my exams so I will do it now. That is the best sounds for stuyding
I wrote nearly 1700 words with the help of this track. Very appreciated!!!
I am happy it helped you 😊
These comments are just oh so lovely!!
Perfect background music for when I play Wild Assent! Every board game needs a soundtrack lol
Major Harry Potter "The Prince's Tale" theme vibes.
Or 'The Forest Again'? Thats my favourite chapter in all HP 😉
Love this dark beautifulness ❤️❤️ Thank you!!
I literally go in a trance when I hear this. It's a beautiful piece you've done and thank you! 🌌🥰
Thank you 😊
wake up kid don't sleep while hearing music
Заставка красивая
So magic! I love it. Thank you!🌳
When I close my eyes and hear this, I feel like I'm back at home in the forests of Long Island. Thanks for allowing me to escape back to my childhood for a brief moment in time.
Happy to help bring some nostalgia, I created it thinking of the forest I grew up around 😊
@@MartiasMuses I am grateful for your work, thank you once again.
This is perfect for writing ! Thank you so much !
You are welcome 🙂 thank your u for your comment and I wish you a lot of inspiration for your writing 😉
Corvus travell journal: "Well, i found an ancient shadowsteel longsword in an pld temple, weirdly enough the door to it opened for me, maybe I am something special, even though i am a renegade paladin, my father is hunting me down, i hated all these rules and laws paladins followed, i wanted to explore and learn about ancient powers. Today, im fairly well known as Corvus, im woth a renegade paladin group, but im mostly on my own, travelling these dark and mystic landscapes, this dark forest gives me chills, i feel like im being watched by the trees. well i have to continue walking, not much further anymore and i can set up a safe camp outside this damned forest. i hope this shadowsteel blade is what it's supposed to be, the legendary Ravenblade. this will help me alot. im Corvus. the last Ancient warrior."
Is there no end to this? They warned me not to cross the forest. I didn´t listen, "superstitious fools", I thought. Everything is so quiet and yet I know something is following me.
@@MartiasMuses Fog begins to settle around me, it feels so cold and lonely, I can see my breath forming mesmerizing clouds that numb my actions. The world around me begins to vanish and blur. I hear the dazzling scream of a raven, he is flying obove, watching me struggle. What is happening to me ? Am I dreaming ? As my thoughts carry on, I feel a heavy tingle next to my hip, a taunting blue light appears that starts slowly to increase in intensity. As the light shines brighter and stronger, my mind gets lifted from the fog surrounding it. I remember the old German tale about my Ravenblade. "Hörst du den Raben schreien so nehme dich in Acht, das blaue Licht leuchtet nur in tiefer Nacht" The raven... The blue light... It's a warning. Danger is close.
This is very beautiful. Thank you for this!
Thank you for your comment 😊
In my opinion, it's an ideal DND ambiance for a risky long rest in the wilderness.
i had to write a story about something "unknown" for a class. this really helped in getting into that mindset.
happy to help :)
Very nice video 👍 Thanks for sharing it. I wish you have a wonderful weekend. Take care and keep it up! 🤗
I wish there was one of these that didn't have music. Like just the swinging of the trees and the wind blowing through the canopy. That is peace by itself.
I'm listening to this while reading The Laws of the Skies...perfectly unsettling
This gives great Witcher vibes!
I use these tracks, to make more immersion. While reading books. Probably I'm not the only one 😂
To the creator of this piece... Utter Genius!!! Thankyou..👍
Thank you 😊
I am in love with this ambience
Listening to this when reading my dark forrest novel gets my imagination running as I’m reading the words of the music ambience.
I can sense the magic in these Woodlands!
So great to start the day. We just love listening to this..
Wrote and will very likely come back to write again listening to this. Thank you!
Thank you! Your composition inspired me and I wrote the script for my video! Goodness and peace to you!
Thank you 😊 I am happy it helped you
The Dark Ambience here is great. Beautiful overlay of wind and moisture on the music! I listen to this at work. Really helps me forget about the noise all around me.
Awesome! The atmosphere of your music reminds me Through Time & Space theme music from The Witcher 3
I wish you could make it longer, for nights, I love this Ambience! 🌛✨🌲🦉♥️
On PC(/Mac?), you can right click the video, and select loop :)
Excatly what I was looking for. Thank you so much. - Sounds fantastic!
Thank you! I am so happy to hear that! :) And welcome to my channel ;-)
