Environment sound effects for building a whole world behind the action. Real places come first: forests full of leaves and birds, spring meadows, mountains, rivers, waterfalls, ocean waves and busy city streets with their trains and buses. Then the made-up ones. Dark dungeons drip and whisper, and there are haunted mansions and futuristic spaces too. Some of it loops cleanly.

An environment track does its best work in the background. It tells the audience where they are and how to feel. Then it gets out of the way. Nature is the easy place to start, with Flowing Water from a mountain stream or a Cascade off the rocks, and steady beds like these sit well under a game or a Nature documentary. The city recordings bring traffic and crowds for anything set in town. When the world is invented, the dungeon and haunted sets do the same job with drips and echoes, and robot footsteps help a futuristic level feel lived in.
