99Sounds released Cinematic Textures, a free cinematic sound library crafted by Dronny Darko.
Cinematic Textures contains 40 royalty-free cinematic sound effects, drones, and soundscapes. The sounds are provided in 24-bit WAV format and are compatible with all major digital audio workstations.
The included sounds are ideal for ambient music, but they will also be useful if you’re working on video projects, podcasts, video games, and more.
Another interesting way to use the included cinematic textures is to load them in a sampler plugin and explore different musical uses for them. For example, you can experiment with adding different effects and processing to turn these drones and soundscapes into pads and leads.
Of course, the sounds will also work without any added processing. I love using these types of noises for layering under drum loops and basslines in my electronic music projects. They’re perfect for adding some subtle atmosphere without overpowering the mix.
You can preview some of the included cinematic sounds in the official demo video below.
The library was crafted by Dronny Darko, a talented artist, and sound designer who previously released a free cinematic library titled Antigen.
