Current sound effects, the water kind, from a gentle trickle to a river pulling hard. Mountain streams and brooks, highland rivers and creeks, and steady currents high up in the hills, recorded far from towns and roads. Long, unbroken takes. Some sit calm. Others rush, right up to the foot of a waterfall.
A current is water moving with somewhere to be. These are field recordings made a long way from traffic, which matters, because a bed of running water only works if nothing else is fighting it. Calm streams and a quiet Brook suit a campsite, a walk or a conversation by the water. Rushing mountain rivers suit something wilder, a crossing or a chase along the bank, and the bigger stuff carries on into Rush. Some libraries record the same water from several microphone positions, so the sound can follow the camera in closer. There's underwater too, for a camera that goes below the surface.
