This week you can experience sounds of water with everything from lush waterfalls and underwater recordings to raindrops in a chimney and aquatic whooshes.
For sounds that will really leave an impact, check out the sounds of bones cracking, realistic fights, sci-fi energy weapons, dropping chains, and massive trees falling!
If you're looking to transport your audience to a unique place, we have ambiences from steeling working sites, the city center of Taipei, the deserts of South America, and even morgues!
If vehicles are on your search list, be sure to listen to recordings of a Mazda CX-5 SUV and 2010 Nissan Qashqai SUV, as well as the slightly cuter 2020 Safaa 909 electric toy car and 2015 Glory tricycle.
Finally, for your unique needs, we have a new physical buttons collection, sounds from a microwave, and an evil space general who will lead your enemies to their glorious doom. Happy listening!
