Most concerts take place in and around bustling Libbey Park, with the chirps of birds making even the most recondite repertory seem almost sylvan, like the creaks, whispers and frenzies of Luciano Berio's daunting solo-instrument Sequenzas, scattered throughout the weekend as pop-up events in a gazebo.

They funnel you through a rain forest canopy, ringing with the chirps, croaks and shrieks of birds, frogs and other animals, to enticing swimming holes and waterfalls with enough chill in the water to refresh from the near 90-degree heat but not enough to keep you out.

By making it possible to compare current rainfall patterns with historical averages at the neighborhood scale for virtually the entire world, CHIRPS provides an early warning system for drought, making it possible for development agencies, insurance companies, and others to more effectively activate adaptive strategies such as food aid and insurance.

Quick snare drums and chintzy keyboard figures in the established rattling-trap style inspire purely sung moments like "Riri," whose barked seal noises prove quite the earworm, and "Pop Man," in which he croons "Wet wet!" persistently and percussively into an echo chamber of moans and purrs and gasps and chirps.

Taking a phone call in the middle of the reading room is frowned upon, but you should also be aware that the intermittent chirps of incoming text messages can be just as obnoxious as a loud conversation or ring tone — so switching your cell phone to silent is a must.

Lianne La Havas, "Lost and Found (Matthew Herbert Remix)" There are a ton of grabby details crammed into this remix of Lianne La Havas' heartbreaking 2012 ballad, enough to necessitate a few back-to-back listens: the revolving piano figure, the snipped guitar passages, the chirps and beeps sprinkled like granola clusters.

" As a glaciologist, MacAyeal is able to identify the source of each sped-up sound: thumping moans are really iceberg tremors; zooming noises arrive from gliding glaciers; metallic plops are actually ice quakes; and chirps are the surprising babel of ice riffs breaking in succession — a chorus that MacAyeal likes to call "monkey laughing.

Over a steady soul progression, Paraiso's "Shimendoka" finds future YMO keyboardist Ryuichi Sakamoto testing exactly the sort of twittering synth chirps he'd go on to flesh out with the Orchestra, and songs like "Silk Road" thread Hosono's interest in mid-century piano ballads through the vibes-inflected "exotica" he was also increasingly interested in at the time.

While the mezzo Hai Ting Chinn, her voice coolly blooming, evoked the torments of the shepherd boy Andres, a group of instrumentalist-actors drew cicada-like chirps and rasps from blank sheets suspended in space, striking tuning forks against rubber-and-metal bracelets and holding the vibrating wands against the paper until it seemed to speak, in surprised whispers.

Her inability to just not speak when just not speaking would have won her the damn day peaks at that horrible dinner, but it starts in the episode's opening scene, when she chirps that Pierce's fallen readership just screams "buy, buy, buy," prompting a look from Logan, and barrels on through the rest of the hour.

For one, she assumes he's looking at porn ("A picture of a bare breast or an erect penis never hurt anyone!" she chirps, even though Ozzy is by all appearances about 9 years old, which puts him at least three years shy of the prime age for recreational erect-penis-perusing) — but for two, the sight of the clown on the cover sends her into a panic.

Amid the chaos, West chirps a series of absurdist brags ("You take your bitch to the mall / I take my bitch to New York," goes one memorable barb.) There's little else out there like its glitchy, pitch-warped, otherworldly bliss, but it's just one of ten equally distinctive tracks on last year's LW17, West's first full-length attempt to bring these influences and styles together.

"Vanity" sends its lead synthesizer through a cascading array of filters — first it's sharp and clear, then it's blunt and watery, with bubbles floating through, then it topples over, sends the textural roulette wheel spinning, and settles on sharp and clear again — all while embedding little bleeps and flutters and chirps behind the main register, tripping up the rhythm and adding an extra unexpected dimension of harmony.

Her office a shower of sorts, too, spa where Tony goes to come clean, where every once in a while butt-naked Tony lets go, belts out his privacies, his innermost, imprisoned stories verse by verse, singing away, no holds barred, to seduce his shrink with beaucoup boo-hoos and hangovers from bad old days when he was coming up the hard way on mauling, murderous streets, and worse at home, Tony Soprano croons, chirps, coos to her.

High on a desolate ridge to the west, the scientists have built a fortress of sensors and shipping containers: a white volleyball radar housing, lasers pointing straight up, an upturned trapezoid emitting digital chirps measuring windspeed, a rifle-like turret tracking the Sun, a thin metal chimney sucking in air and sampling the particles floating in it, a camera that photographs individual falling raindrops, a mirrored dome measuring the portion of the sky covered in clouds.

"Trigger Bang" is a fun, low-key pop bop, which starts out with Giggs' verse, and then unfolds into a musing from Lily, looking back at the height of her fame (namedropping hangouts LA's Chateau Marmont and London's Chiltern Firehouse) with signature tongue-in-cheek wit and Lahndahn phrasing, never letting that rose-tint for the past get too heavy: "Anything went, I was famous / I would wake up next to strangers / Everyone knows what cocaine does / Numbing the pain when the shame comes, hey," she chirps.
