Kalimba Sound Effects

Kalimba sound effects, from the little wooden box with metal tines you pluck with your thumbs. There are high end and lo-fi kalimbas, recorded with stereo condensers and with contact microphones. Odd and lovely. It turns up in designed form too, pulled into eerie horror textures and surreal transitions, and inside game interface sounds.

The raw kalimba recordings come with stereo condenser and Contact Mic takes that can be mixed together, so the balance can be set in the edit. That's the source end. The designed libraries take it further, into eerie horror ambiences built from unusual sources and surreal drones and transitions for dream sequences. The interface side is lighter. Kalimba turns up inside notifications and achievements for casual games, next to organic clicks and bell chimes for mobile apps. It suits puzzle games and children's animation, and slowed down it gives horror a hand made kind of Atmosphere.
