In his song called "Back from Hunting," the electronic theme is joined by many natural elements such as bugs' rattling, the ants' pacing, the wing-flapping of hornbill birds and the clapping of bamboo poles.

About Journeys in Nature: Melodies of Nature Series
Xishuangbanna in southwest China's Yunnan Province is home to one of China's largest tropical rainforests with impressive biodiversity. Multiple ethnic groups, such as Dai, Hani and Lahu, live there. Doudou, a wildlife photographer and an environmentalist, came to the forest with friends from different walks of life to collect the sounds of local fauna and flora, as well as the sounds of indigenous ethnic instruments, to explore the human-nature relationship.
