Hey, fellow seekers of tranquillity and concentration. I'm the Ambient Gamer

In a video game world filled with enchanting soundtracks and ear-catching melodies, I found solace in the subtle symphonies of ambient sounds. The background chatter, the crackling fire and even the distant gunfire.

It all began as a personal quest to improve my focus, relieve stress, and find restful sleep amidst the challenges of daily life.

Video game soundtracks and music can be mesmerizing, but they often become the main event, pulling my attention away from what truly matters. That's when I stumbled upon the soothing magic of ambient audio. Rainfall, gentle winds, and the subtle hum of nature became my companions in the quest for productivity and serenity.

Why did I need to make these videos?

There's already plenty of "Ambience" channels on YouTube and didn't see how mine would slot in. Then I realised I was struggling to find ambience videos of video game worlds without music/soundtrack audio. So I made my own, for private use at first.

How did I start?

Ambient Gamer started with a simple Google Drive upload. I never planned to make the videos public. I casted videos that I recorded and edited to my TV to help me fall asleep. Or in the daytime, I simply opened the .mp4 and had the audio playing in the background whilst I worked on my PC. It was that simple.

Why did I start uploading them?

I've been creating YouTube videos across several channels for years. I had a contract with Machinima when I was a teen making video game content wildly different to what Ambient Gamer is about. One day I thought, why not just upload these publicly? Just like I did years ago before Machinima contacted me. There was no specific reason. I just did it. Maybe somebody else would enjoy them?
