Éclat: Part 68

Avatar eclatcrew | June 15, 2021

We're always on the hunt for new sources for weird sounds, and this week we came across the BBC Sound Effects Archive. Full of sounds of all kinds, from nature, to mechanical, to clocks and crowds, there are thousands of sounds just waiting to be downloaded. They're all available under a non-commercial-use license, but if you decide to release something commercially, it's a very straightforward process to organise.

I've downloaded a selection of the sound effects from the 'Toys' category. There's some cute sounds, some musical sounds, and some truly disturbing and terrifying sounds; do with them as you will! Download all the samples for today's challenge from WeTransfer here.

Here's what we made:
