Our new SFX composer made this free pack for you!

Our new SFX composer made this free pack for you!

We hired a composer for SFXs and he's awesome!

I'm honored to greet in the team the one-and-only Pierrick Veillerobe. He'll be in charge to compose between 25 to 35 SFXs (sound effects) per month, based on the Adventure Theme and what comes through his mind. Exceptionally, this pack is free. It's to show everyone what SFXs are about, but the next releases will only be for 2022-06-18 14:34:34 +0000 UTC View Post

June News

Hello everyone!

June has been incredibly busy so far, we have many things in the pipeline. Most of the workload was linked to the survey and the decisions/solutions we decided afterwards. Here are the news and what kept us busy.

SFX

We always deliver what we promise, and we promised SFXs. I don't want to spoil the surprise, but those who like SFXs will be very happy<...

Forest of Seasons (3 free ambiences)

Forest of Seasons (3 free ambiences)

Hello everyone,

Something special today: as a birthday gift for a friend (he's my GM for our Starfinder campaign), I offered him a free commission.

He wanted something very specific that doesn't fit in our standards. He wanted a forest that goes through the seasons, for a whole hour. He also wanted some japanese feel to it. The seasons change smoothly every 15 minutes.

While i...

Survey results and actions we take

Survey results and actions we take

Greetings everyone, it's Michael,

The survey has been running for two weeks, and we already received more than 500 answers and 2000+ comments, which is incredible. The feedback quality is way beyond what I imagined (and I already had very high expectations from you).

This post will be long, I'll do my best to keep it concise, but there's a lot of valuable lessons and graphs to share...

Lost Eden (5 ambiences, 3 SFX)

Lost Eden (5 ambiences, 3 SFX)

Hello everyone!

Here's a full Sci-Fi pack, made to go with Filip's 30 minutes Adventure Theme he released a few days ago.

This pack features five ambiences which depict a remote outpost, a place that survives off the charts, under no imperial rule (that's how I personally imagined it).

As for the ambiences and SFX specifically, I tried to compose elements that are "ready to us...

Naga Lair (1 song, 1 map)

Greetings everyone!

The Goblin Explorer and I have prepared a new collaboration pack for you. Naga lair is a mysterious underground ruin filed with traps, treasures, unsettling cold waters and off course, Nagas. Matt created a map that comes with 5 variations and he did a wonderful job. I composed a subdued dungeon track with the main focus on the harp, but as this piece moves forward, t...

New Song: ''Bicyclops''

Greetings everyone!

Today we have a quirky comedic adventure song, inspired by soundtracks you would often hear in Wes Anderson's films. I had a great pleasure to once again collaborate with The Fluffy Folio and The Goblin Explorer on this project. Both of them are currently working hard to create the creature's art and a map that will also be released here on patreon, in early June. I w...

New Song: ''Cosmic Anomalies''

Greetings everyone!

Here's a new simple, sort of subdued, sci-fi exploration song for your games. Possible scenarios for where I could see this theme being used are research development centers, planning & preparation events, space exploration or even as a main menu music ( As an example, if you plan to use this song through virtual tabletops ). ''Cosmic Anomalies'' has a w...

Undead Army Marching (5 ambiences, 2 SFX)

Hello Patrons!

Here's an original pack of ambiences and SFX about the undead. I thought about that pack when I randomly saw a snippet of the Lords of the Rings on internet, when Frodo and Sam are just outside of Minas Morgul and see the army leaving the fortress to attack Minas Tirith.

I know it's mainly orcs in the movie, but I wanted to do that ambience for the undead.

''My grandfather was an inventor with the most brilliant mind. Most of our city's architectural marvels were built by him, or at least their designs were based on his incredible ideas. He was a kind but a silent man, always trapped by the four walls of his workshop, creating new wonders, making our life better. There were times when when we didn't see him leave outside his office for days. We c...

A few news + May free albums

Hello everyone!

It's Michael.

The news

I went through eye surgery (both eyes). It heavily impairs my ability to work. My workaholic tendency suffers a lot from it, but it forces me to chill. Because of that, the ambiences content will arrive by the end of the month, The amount won't be smaller though, nothing to worry about.

Your opinion about sound effects (Poll)

Hello everyone!

(Quick info: I'm working on several ambiences packs that should be released this week. We'll also have some Sci-Fi content this month!)

We have a very important question for you. On Patreon, we set a special goal at 3700$ : We would hire a composer for SFX specifically.

The thing is: we stand at 3699$ at the moment, so we will have to take a decision s...

The Void (3 ambiences, 7 SFX)

Hello Patrons!

Here's the SFX/Ambience part of the adventure theme of the month, THE VOID!

The Void is often depicted in video games and TTRPG as an (actually not empty) place with arcane and chaotic energies, questionable gravity and a rather unpleasant fauna. It's generally one of the places I love the most and I often use them in my TTRPG sessions.

I attached some images, i...

For the adventure theme, Filip wanted to compose a calm track for forest exploration. I already have several forest ambiences so I tried to create something different, something calmer.

I didn't see the point of composing 5 variations. It would not have a great value for you and it wouldn't have been very interesting for me either. Instead, I invested quite some time...

I hope you are doing well. The Studios will release two new music albums next month. One will be a TWO HOURS album made of six tracks. The genre is Gothic music, kinda atmospheric, perfect for Curse of Strahd or other haunted places. It shall cost 18$ on Bandcamp, so it's definitely a GREAT deal to get this one as a "Chosen"-tiered patron.
