Atmospheric wind sound effects featuring light breezes, howling gusts, and ghostly swells, recorded by award-winning sound designers for creating emotive and surreal soundscapes in various projects.
Create with the dynamic energy of wind. As one of the most challenging subjects to record, wind sounds also inspire a range of creative and practical uses on projects of all types.
That’s why we’re proud to present Cinematic Winds: Volume 2 – the exclusive follow up to our most popular speciality library, Cinematic Winds.
Like its predecessor, much of this wind sound effects library is curated from legendary film sound designers Ann Kroeber and Alan Splet – both well known for their work with David Lynch and more. Volume 2 expands on this with even more moody, colourful wind recordings from Academy Award®-winning sound artist Richard King (Dunkirk, Inception) plus recordist/sound designer Colin Lechner (Raconteur Sound).
These sounds are full of character – from light breezes and swirling heavy gusts, to carefully-crafted whistling wisps and ghostly roaring swells. Capture the emotive power of wind as it rustles through leaves and howls through windows – ideal for inducing subconscious emotion, imposing a powerful presence, or creating both earthy and surreal soundscapes.
Descriptive embedded metadata helps you find exactly the sound you need with practical, literal interpretations as well as emotional impressions of the sound effects. The wind sounds are grouped into five categories:
Moody Winds: Tonal, eerie, mournful, lonely
Interior Winds: Resonant staircases, barns, caves, pipes
Nature Winds: Through trees, over mountains, water, sand
Wild Winds: Gusting, whipping, whooshing, swirling
Storm Winds: Intense, howling, rumbling, shrieking
