  • Mechanical Sound Effects Bowling Play Track 34+ sounds included, 44 mins total $24.99

    Bowling features a wide variety of high-quality stereo sounds from the sport of 10-pin bowling, captured from multiple micing perspectives at three different bowling alleys across the United States.

    I visited a 40-lane, a 24-lane and an 8-lane alley, all at different times of day and night to capture sounds during league practice (with no music) and sounds with no one in the house besides myself and the manager. I was given fantastic access, allowing me to record from various perspectives. These include from above, behind and beside the mechanical pinsetter machines and next to the pin deck at the far end of the lanes. I also set my mics down next to the foul line, the ball return behind the approach, behind the settee area (where bowlers sit), the concourse area (where bowlers find the snack machines and bar) and halfway down the service aisle beside the first lane. I followed a robot-like lane machine as it traveled back and forth along the lanes, laying down oil at just the right spots. It works a lot like an inkjet printer putting words onto a page.

    ​​I was permitted to turn pinsetter machines off and on at the back of the house, which was pretty fun. Each one has a switch in the back. Who knew? This allowed me to record just one machine in isolation, or several working at once. I rolled (delivered is the term used by the United States Bowling Congress) a few frames down an alley with no machines running. Machine noise can mask the woosh of a ball passing by. Rolling with the machines turned off allowed me to get this delicate sound like I wanted.

    So get yourself an oat soda and a limitless bowl of pretzels. Slip on a pair of two-toned suede bowling shoes, you know, those kind with their size stamped on the heel for all to see, and enjoy Bowling.

  • Household Sound Effects Vacuum Cleaners Play Track 112+ sounds included, 80 mins total $34.99

    Certain sounds evoke memories of our childhood homes. By listening to them again, whether by chance or intentionally, we can magically be transported back to that time and place. For me, one sound that is forever engrained into my memory is that of an old vacuum cleaner. Vacuum Cleaners is my attempt at rediscovering the unique sound of the machine I remember from when I was a kid. To my imaginative, adolescent ears, it sounded like a rocket ship, a blimp and a race car. I couldn’t get enough of it.

    Included are 35 machines: stick, canister, upright, robot, handheld, hand pump, industrial and central vacuum cleaners, plus antique and modern sweepers, a steam mop, carpet cleaner and shampoo polisher. To my ears, each motor’s unique voice sounds like something way beyond a simple vacuum cleaner. Vintage uprights howl and roar like rocket ships, classic space-age canister vacuums whine like futuristic hovercraft. There’s a central vacuum that can suck the life out of you and an antique pump vacuum that gives off eerie breath-like sounds.

    I recorded some machines while sweeping back and forth in front of my microphones. For others, I captured them in place, in line with my belief that these motors sound more like rocket engines than vacuum cleaners. I created loops when a file allowed for it. To record a wooden Adler-Royal sweeper at an antique store, I asked the owner if I could walk around the store and sweep the aisles. She said yes, so I slung a Domke bag over my shoulder and gaffer taped a pair of contact mics to the sweeper. The result sounds like a muffled boulder going down a hill.
