Resonance is a cross-platform clientside mod which adds ambient sounds that play under different conditions, including: different biomes, nearby blocks, time, seasons (if Serene Seasons is installed), etc.
With the release of 1.21.5 adding ambient sand sounds and firefly bush sounds, I felt that a lot more could have been done with ambiance, including having a higher variety of sounds to make the game feel more alive. Resonance is the solution to that problem. Unlike other ambient sound mods, Resonance doesn't play a simple loop containing all of the sounds of a biome, rather it plays a combination of idle loops and additional sounds under specific conditions. This makes the game feel more immersive and gives a more realisic feeling to the ambiance around you compared to other mods, while also not deviating far from the style of the vanilla game's preexisting ambiance.
Alongside that, Resonance also enhances thunder by playing different sounds depending on distance, making storms now feel more menancing than before. And of course, this and everything else mentioned can be configured.
