Alien Machine Shop

Sounds no has ever heard, from places no one has ever been. How is that possible?Alien Machine Shop was created with just that idea in mind, designed from scratch to be from another world.

Elements were twisted, bent, scratched, and hammered into tension filled, agitated forms. The results are abnormal, mystifying, discordant and machine-like soundscapes. Jarring to the ear and unfamiliar to the mind. They instantly add unease and intensity to any scene or production.

Alien Machine Shop is not for the faint of heart.

Animal Trax

We put together this set after all the loud requests from our sound designer friends. Twenty years ago, all the rage was human sounds for the hidden ambient punch. You know, heartbeats, suffocating screams, and death wails, in unexpected spots, as in Brian De Palma and Coppola films. The very designation "sound designer" was invented right around then.

Burtis Bill Sounds of the American West

When the West was young and life was simple, when the sounds of a crackling campfire or a lone cowboy whistle could cut through the cool morning air, a young boy and future sound recordist named Burtis Bills listened. And learned.

Bills noticed the sounds of a steam locomotive passing through the depot west of town on a cold, rainy night. He loved it all -- from rails clinking and clacking, to the hollow whistle blaring. But when the new trains moved in and changed the sounds of his small town, he grew nostalgic. He wanted to capture those sounds: the ones that reminded him most of the Old West as he remembered it.

Car Chase Scene Elements

Your hands are sweaty on the wheel. The pedal's on the floor and you focus on the road, tires peeling out underneath you. Finally, with a quick glance back you realize - they're after you.

Because these sounds are so specific, and so hard to get on your own, The Hollywood Edge is proud to offer all of the effects necessary to sound your own car chase scenes, including high speed chases and crashes, all on a five-CD set.

Vehicles

American Zoetrope and The Hollywood Edge have joined forces to extend their collection of epic sound effects, all from the sound vault of Francis Ford Coppola's San Francisco motion picture studio.

This 7-disc collection contains hundreds of original vehicle and moving machine sounds, recorded for the soundtracks of a wide range of films from war pictures to period dramas.

Specific cars including Mustangs, Buicks, Lincolns, Pontiacs, Impalas, Corvairs, Falcons and the limited-production Tucker are included. Several foreign models are also represented. General car types such as limos, taxis, ambulances, emergency vehicles, hot-rods and muscle cars are featured. Vehicle sounds were recorded on road-surfaces ranging from gravel, dirt, city streets, highway and wet pavement at varying speeds: racing, slow driving, stalled and steady. Isolated car sounds are included such as wipers, doors, trunks, horns, tire peel-outs and blow-outs. Finally, there are bonus moving vehicle sounds including motorcycles, trucks, trains, tugboats, ferries, subway cars, and related ambiences. Most recordings are in stereo, several are dual perspective.

This second installment in the American Zoetrope Sound Effects Collection series, which follows the release of "Apocalypse Now" collection, will provide many essential effect for the professional sound designer's toolkit.
