Night sound effects for when the light goes and the wildlife takes over. Crickets and cicadas filling a warm summer field. Stags roaring through a dark forest in the rut. Rain pattering on a tin shed while thunder grumbles far off. A campfire popping away while everyone else is asleep. Quiet, but never silent.

Night ambience is mostly insects, and the species tells the audience where they are. A wall of cicadas says somewhere hot. A few Cricket chirps in a meadow mean the countryside in summer, and swapping them for birds tips the scene towards Morning. The recordings here come from Europe and Southeast Asia, from single chirps to whole fields, some with very little background noise so you can layer them cleanly. A stag roaring in the dark makes a forest feel alive and slightly dangerous. Rain and distant thunder suit a moodier night.
