Jarvis Cocker has created a free album for fans - featuring the sounds of nature.

The former Pulp frontman has teamed up with Britain's National Trust to record a compilation of sounds, including ducks quacking and waves lapping, from different environmental landmarks around the U.K.

He says, "I hope this album is a 'holiday for the ears'. It's not really meant to be listened to intently, like a piece of music, but more as something to have on in the background to aid relaxation or contemplation.

"Plus, you get to visit 13 National Trust properties in the space of 30 minutes. No mean feat. I hope it has the feel of one continuous journey and conjures up an image in the mind's eye of the places featured. I also hope it could inspire the listeners to then visit the sites for themselves."
