In this recap, we have three new libraries for that will get you elements that aren’t easy to find. We have an anxious, talkative German Shepherd, northern ambiences filled with glorious loons, and ominous drones that let you know you’re in a bad place – but don’t be too afraid, check them out!
'Wimpy Dog' by Big Room Sound Inc. has 38 recordings of a German Shepherd who anxiously wants something. You'll hear his distinct and memorable whines, yelps, and barks from a close-up perspective - making them perfect for anything from commercials to cartoons to that rom-com scene where the main character can't handle his prospective father-in-law's prize pooch. If you're looking for a solo dog sound library that is free of kennel sounds and reverb, give this one a listen.

Nature & Countryside Ambiences Northern Rockies: Common Loons Play Track 26+ sounds included, 83 mins total $55• In Northern Rockies: Common Loons, get a collection of the strange and mythical calls of Common Loons. These beautiful birds have haunting calls that sing across the boreal lakes of North America. One of the greatest pleasures I’ve had as a field recordist was hearing their majestic wails echo across still waters. This library includes sounds of a nesting pair captured during a full week of nighttime and dawn recording in Glacier National Park, Montana.

Captured at the Glacier National Park in Montana, you'll hear the wondrous sounds of loons with their strange and majestic calls that echo across the nighttime and early morning skies. As it's an ambience library, you'll also hear choruses of thrushes, snipes, blackbirds, and kinglets, too, as well well as other wildlife life like chipmunks, beavers, and bats. For nature ambiences filled with the haunting sounds of loons, this is the one for you.
'DARK' by Badlands Sound has a half hour of daunting ambiences that will bring a tense atmosphere to your soundscapes. Ranging from deep rumbles to sinister, windy vibrations, these sounds can work as creepy layers or full soundscapes for your torture chambers, haunted warehouses, or threatening alleyways. Each of the library's 15 files lasts two minutes and slowly transforms during that time. For uneasy soundscapes that you can drop right into your project, check this one out.
