CD Reviews

A Gem

Michael D. Sweeney | Berkeley, CA United States | 03/12/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"There are a lot of bad "Sound Effects" CD's out there. Most are transparent rip-offs of the BBC's multi-volume public domain set, only with bad transfers, digital noise, and bad cut-offs.

This isn't one of them.

This CD is a gift-pack of period vehicles (horse-drawn, mostly), with a leavening of other period sounds, all clear and detailed and just ready to be dropped into a video or used to set the stage in a theatrical production (which is where I've reached for this CD, over and over, as a theatrical sound designer of twenty years experience.)

Not exhaustively complete. Not even a great variety (despite strangeness like the bits of WWII aircraft noises). But just enough, especially if your goal is to put a little period street traffic outside the window."
