  • This ambiences pack is the result of a short field recording trip / road trip I made in October 2019 around the beautiful land/soundscapes of the Scottish Highlands.

    I decided to go with a LCR + AB setup, as while testing different options I found it to be very versatile and relatively light and small. All mics were mounted inside the Cinela Albert basket for more convenience, allowing me to capture multichannel ambiences ( virtually 5.0 surround ) with a single thing to set up, and perfectly sheltered from wind.

    I came across rivers, streams, lochs, waterfalls, lochs, harbours, lochs, quiet forests, reindeers slabs and more lochs.

    This ” Mini Ambience Pack ” contains 24 sounds /72 files embedded with full and detailed metadata ( Soundminer, Basehead, iXML ).

  • Environments & Ambiences Rain, Rivers & Waves Play Track 97 sounds included, 230 mins total $79

    Spanning five years of meticulous field recordings “Rain, Rivers & Waves” gets you nearly 8 GB of pristine water sounds in all shapes and sizes.

    The collection includes 97 files recorded in stereo at 96 kHz.

    We hope this collection will be of great value to anybody looking for outstanding water sounds.

    As usual, all our sounds are meticulously recorded, edited with patience and mastered with love.

    Sincerely,

  • Recorded at an old WWII-era bunker just outside Halifax, Nova Scotia, now derelict and covered in rust.

    These recordings were a happy accident, discovered on the way to record something else. This large, heavy steel door has been rusting since wartime, and when I noticed it I immediately knew it would have a unique sonic character. When moved, it produces interesting almost musical tones, rich with harmonics and ripe for processing.

    This library includes a variety of sounds generated by interacting with the door in different ways (scraping, punching, and moving at various speeds).

  • Aeolus is a collection of gritty and eerie sound design elements performed entirely by intense winds. These recordings were made on custom-made wind harps, handmade props, barbed wire fences, telephone poles, and other found objects. It is utterly unlike a normal wind library.

    This collection of layers and elements of howls, drones, moans, creaks, rattles, clatters, and clanks provides rich material for the creation of unsettling ambiences, eerie presences, spooky room tones, and textural sweeteners for realistic winds. Aeolus is filled with conveniently long takes of piano wire, power lines, barbed wire, and other found and prepared objects that rumble, chitter, chatter, resonate, and whistle, in both gusty and sustained winds. Its sounds are perfect for horror scenes, magical effects, straining force fields, steampunk ambiences, extreme weather, high desert dramatic tension, or rusty post-apocalyptic soundscapes.

    This UCS-compliant sound library is not a pure field recording collection; it contains lengthy recordings that are both minimally processed and extremely time- and pitch-altered. Some recordings lasted overnight, then reduced to mere minutes, remapping sound events into unfamiliar cadences or into/out of human hearing range. 

    Aeolus includes over two hours of raw recordings and twenty additional minutes of designed sounds from the original recordings, ready to use in a project or to serve as a launchpad for further inspiration.

  • Roomtones Quiet Hotels At Night Vol.2 Play Track 63 sounds included, 238 mins total $70

    “Quiet Hotels At Night Vol. 2” is the second part of our most popular library “Quiet Hotels At Night”.  Comprised of the best pieces of several years of recordings. Imagine you are in a game or a security guard who is doing his regular tour. You find yourself in different corridors, rooms, and stairwells, even in the kitchen of a restaurant late at night. Through the recordings, you can experience a wide variety of settings – from riding a hotel elevator to looking around the lobby. The idea of the library is to include a rich variety of room tones and quiet atmospheres very early in the morning, late in the evening, or at night. The atmospheres in hotels of different sizes and stages of construction are quite distinctive because of their different reverberation, density of walls, doors, etc. Most of the library is focused around silence. You can hear photo-cell lighting at times, distant faint voices at others, or just sporadic sounds coming from places such as doors or footsteps from an upper floor. The stairwells are also very interesting as you can hear the sound of moving elevators stopping on another floor or the sound of pure electricity. This library sequel also includes atmospheres from the interior of moving elevators. You will hear the sound of doors closing, traveling, and doors opening. Room tones from a handful number of bathrooms are included as well. This library has been recorded in Eastern Europe and more specifically in Bulgaria which makes the atmospheres even more diverse and intriguing.

    All of the files are carefully and thoroughly meta-tagged in UCS.

    Gear used:

    Recorders: Sound Devices 833, 664, Sony PCM D100, Zoom H6,

    Microphones: Neumann KM184 mP, Usi Pro

    Enjoy the night hotels.

  • Percussion Instruments Shakers and Percussion Play Track 2000 sounds included $29

    Shakers, maracas and rainsticks are great material for sound design and further processing.

    For this library I recorded various ethnic shakers, maracas, rainsticks of different sizes and other unusual esoteric percussion instruments, like Kapel’ (circular shaker) or giant-size custom built rainstick.

    These percussion instruments were recorded from various angles, dynamics and with pristine sound quality, which can be further processed, granulated or pitch-mangled to push your sound design boundaries further.
