Our Creation Process

We collected these interior recordings over the years, capturing the unique atmospheres of rooms and places during our travels. Our equipment varied across sessions, adapting to the setting—whether in bustling cities, quiet small towns, remote countryside, the Himalayas, the Amazon, or distant islands. Our goal was to document the essence of each space, preserving the aural footprint of every location we visited.

Some recordings feature little more than stillness, while others include traces of local wildlife heard through windows or thin walls. You may also detect ambient noises like heaters, distant hums, machinery, traffic, or neighbors, resonating differently depending on the surrounding architecture.

We meticulously selected the best recordings, refining them to remove sections with excessive variation. Each sound was carefully edited to maintain a level of noise within the ‘subtlety’ range, ensuring they work seamlessly as background atmospheres that smooth out the sonic environment of any scene.

We are proud to present this collection, featuring some of the finest indoor silences we’ve ever captured—rich with delicate, everyday sounds at the edge of human perception. These recordings will help you effortlessly recreate beautiful, immersive spaces with natural charm.
