Elements Vol. 1 – Ambience, Foley Loops and One Shots

Foley is one of those secret weapons that can completely change the character of a track. The kind of sound that makes someone stop and think, “What is that?” or “How did they make that?”. This pack is a collection of real-world field recordings captured in locations across the globe, including Dubai, the Netherlands and the UK, recorded by Steven Weston, Jordin Post and Niko Ava.

Inside you’ll find a huge range of loops and one-shots built from:

Earth, Glass, Leaves, Metals, Natural Ambience, Rocks and Wood.

These aren’t sounds designed in a synth or pulled from a stock library. They’re genuine recordings of physical objects, spaces and environments, packed with all the tiny imperfections and unexpected details that make real sound so interesting.

Drop the loops underneath your drums to add natural texture, movement and groove. Chop them up, stretch them, distort them and hunt for those happy accidents that suddenly become the backbone of a track.

Layer the one-shots with snares, claps and percussion for extra crunch, character and weight. Or take the more tonal sounds, throw them into a sampler and turn them into strange leads, organic plucks, pads and textures that nobody is going to recreate from a preset.

Sometimes the most interesting sounds in a track aren’t instruments at all.

They’re the sounds of the world around us.
