Atmospherik Mekanisms is a collection of found sounds and processed sound effects crafted by Martin Eve, aka 4th Eden.
The free download link is located at the end of this article.
The Library
Atmospherik Mekanisms was created as part of the project Martin Eve worked on for his final major project in his Creative Music Technology degree. The project included a music album and the free sound library featured on this page.
While creating Atmospherik Mekanisms, Martin was inspired by various musique concrète techniques, which were adapted for a modern digital audio environment.
The library contains 123 audio samples in 24-bit WAV format, organized into nine categories. Inside the download, you’ll find everything from field recordings and found sounds to sampled analog instruments and digitally processed sound effects.
The amount of excellent audio content included in Atmospherik Mekanisms is nothing short of mind-blowing.
If you liked some of our previous releases, such as Rain And Thunder, Sound Design Tools, Cinematic Sound Effects, and Massamolla, we’re quite certain that you’ll fall in love with Martin’s wonderful collection of sounds.
We would hereby like to thank Martin for releasing such an amazing piece of sound design work on 99Sounds.
It’s an honor to host this library on our website, and we’re humbled to see that fellow sound designers around the globe recognize 99Sounds as a platform for collaboration, creative support, and sharing one’s sound design work with the rest of the world.
