I am a sound designer and composer passionate about recording soundscapes across France. My work involves capturing and composing with these sounds to create unique auditory experiences. My goal is to evoke emotions and connect people with the sonic world around them, all while preserving our sound heritage.
I explore new sound interactions and encourage a deeper perception of the sound around us. I specialize in immersive sound experiences for podcasts, museum scenography, and new media art. My work involves shaping sound to craft captivating immersive experiences, stimulating the imagination, and evoking emotions in the listener through music and sound design.
This sound bank captures all facets of London, from its quiet neighborhoods to its dense, bustling areas. Traversing the city from east to west and north to south, it documents a diversity of ambiances: vibrant markets, sirens piercing the streets, the flow of public transport, tranquil parks, and busy traffic-filled streets.
The 84 recordings are offered in binaural format for immersive listening, as well as stereo mixes for speaker playback, suitable for post-production needs. Each recording faithfully reflects the unique atmosphere of each location, providing an authentic dive into the sonic landscape of the English capital.
Designed to enhance audiovisual post-production projects, sound design, or radio creations, this sound bank accurately captures London’s rich sonic diversity. Metadata is included for easier use, and the binaural version, especially suited for immersive creations, provides an enhanced sense of immersion in the city’s soundscapes.
Dive into the authentic urban atmospheres of French cities with our dedicated sound bank. Recorded in various locations such as Nantes, Strasbourg, Paris, Montpellier, Orléans, and more, our recordings offer a total immersion into the daily life of French city-dwellers.
Our collection is divided into two parts: a binaural section for an immersive spatial listening experience, and a stereo section for use in audio or audiovisual post-production.
You’ll find a wide variety of typically French urban environments, including restaurants, terraces, markets, parks, as well as street atmospheres, tourist areas, and traffic.
Each sound is captured with great precision to faithfully reflect the atmosphere and essence of the recorded locations. This sound bank is designed to meet the needs of sound professionals, offering a valuable resource to enhance their creative projects with realistic and evocative urban atmospheres.
This specialized sound library dedicated to gardening tools offers recordings of high quality in both stereo and binaural formats. Each tool, whether it be shovels, rakes, pruners, watering cans, or wheelbarrows, is captured using Soundman OKMII microphones in a residential garden in the countryside. The binaural recordings provide an immersive perspective of tool usage. Each sound has a stereo version suitable for speaker playback. This sound library is spatialized for those seeking authentic gardening sound recordings, making it ideal for post-production, immersive podcasts, and more.
A captivating audio collection capturing the sounds of a 20th-century barge moving along the Seine River in France. This sound bank offers a variety of authentic recordings, perfect for content creators, musicians, and sound designers looking to add a realistic touch to their projects.

All recordings were made with a Zoom F6 recorder, equipped with two EM272Z1 cardioid capsules, ensuring optimal audio quality. This sound bank can be used to enhance music, audiovisual post-production, content creation, and sound design.

There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
