Could be instrument-related, or just stuff you hear in the
environment.

i'll go with...
-jet aircraft taking off
-police siren
-piano

i like the sounds of orgasm. well any ecstatic state
actually. ecstacy in general sounds beautiful, and orgasmic
moans are highly ecstatic.

kitty cat purring!
rainfall
Black Sabbath's guitars
David Gilmour's voice
sound of hard shoes on stone floors (click, clack, you
know?)
typing
my girlfriend screeching as we fuck the hell out of each
other.

Which doesn't happen anymore. So I hate you all.

waves rolling up on shore... baby sounds... I'm fascinated
by the hum of my computer... it's such a consistant sound
that I become used to it, and I begin to wonder if it's
actually making a sound... it's really weird...

away from the idiotic people that hang out there. I love

the scenery in Alaska on a sunset is priceless, but i guess
that's a different neural sense.
many sounds of nature are pleasing.
the sound from the highway from afar puts me to sleep at
night.

You don't like RAIN? Good lord, I would pay 100 bucks to
have it start pouring right now! And never stop! I'd like to
see all the girls with wet T shirts on all the time. Fuck,
they'd probably wear raincoats, though... foiled again!

Theres an awesome NFB movie that has this epic orchestra
music going to this huge orage blob. Its about 3-4 minutes
long and you have no clue what this thing is that you're
looking at, and then in a huge blast of noise, you realize
its a popcorn kernel magnified beyond belief as it pops, its
amazing.

NFB=National film board of Canada, what Boards of Canada
based their name on. I dont know where you get them if you
arent in Canada, here we just get them at the library.

Blackbirds singing .

The blackbird is the only bird i really like , it is so
musical and its repertoire is so varied. Summertime , the
sun is going down and the blackbird is singing , wow!

I hate pigeons , what a fucking stupid sound they make , all
the time.

I love the sounds of animals eating , like if you feed a
carrot to a horse. It sounds so good eventhough its just a
carrot.

And like many have mentioned before in this thread Rain!
Try listening to "Nannou 2" next time it rains , its the
ultimate rain song. Elliot smith is good rain music too.

Also theres nothing like a really fat synthetic kick drum ,
the big clean ones.
