My favourite accompaniment to the stars is the calls of Mo-Pokes (nightjars) owl-like anyway. I absolutely love them litle critters :-) Like an aussie version of the cuckoo bird call.
I reckon hendrix's soaring stratospheric guitar solos is the best space music followed by Pink Floyd (especially for total solar eclipses- dark side of the moon) I have a mp3 version of Mike Oldfields version of the X-files theme - pretty nice space music.
We are usually trying to be very quiet due to usually being somewhere we are not supposed to be? sometimes?
Sometimes we hear the ungodly screams of the 'loon axe murderer' that can be disturbing!
Bats flittering and snapping is nice too.

I usually listen myself while talking to myself. I even answer myself.

I love the sound of the barking owls & the Dingos howling as the last 1/4 moon rises ....
That said, the blues & Pink Floyd rate highly in the musical stakes.

I love all kinds of music, usually loud, but somehow the sound of silence and natures creatures is the best when observing..

I meditate in which I am in a full state of concentration...I concentrate on the nights viewing session ahead.....no sounds can be heard whilst I am in this state.....until the wife calls out dinner is ready.
