Crowds Sound FX
The package of sounds titled "Crowds" offers a diverse array of auditory experiences, capturing the essence of various crowd interactions and atmospheres. From the bustling chatter at the close of a protest meeting in England to the farcical reaction of twelve men and women saying "Aye, aye", these recordings offer a glimpse into the dynamics of different crowds. The sound of a satellite machine operating in a fairgrounds or circus setting, screams blending with occasional indistinct public address announcements, transports listeners to a unique and atmospheric space. Orders being shouted with a small cheer in an exterior setting in July 1981 evoke a sense of urgency and activity. In a different setting, a crowd of twenty men expressing disapproval with "no nos" in an interior space adds a touch of tension to the mix. The ambient sounds of a crowd in a hamburger fast food store create a lively and dynamic atmosphere, while the cheers and applause at a protest meeting in England offer a sense of unity and solidarity among the participants. The recording of a public house in London captures the bustling atmosphere of a moderately busy pub, complete with the sounds of a fruit machine win at a specific moment in time. The hushed speech of a quiet crowd in an interior setting hints at a more subdued and intimate gathering, contrasting with the large cheer and whistles of a crowd in an exterior space. The museum crowd atmosphere recording immerses listeners in the ambiance of a busy cultural space, while the chatter of an English and French audience at the Playhouse Theatre adds an international flavor to the mix. The recording of an angry, jeering crowd in close perspective with a horse-drawn vehicle creates a sense of tension and unrest, while the ambiance around Court One at Wimbledon in 1997 offers a glimpse into the world of professional tennis. The general atmosphere of a FA Cup Final game in 1989, without specific highlights, captures the energy and excitement of a sports event. The chatter and footsteps on gravel add a touch of realism to the mix, while the recording of a large crowd outside St. Paul's Cathedral during the wedding of H.R.H. Prince of Wales transports listeners to a historic and celebratory moment. The hysterical laughter of a man and a woman, as well as a separate recording of laughter in an interior setting, add a touch of levity to the collection. The atmosphere in the reptile house at London Zoo, complete with the sounds of children and crowds, offers a glimpse into a unique and educational setting. The recording of a carriage procession arriving amidst shouted orders and cheers in an exterior space adds a touch of grandeur to the mix. In contrast, the ambient sounds of a large exhibition hall with occasional indistinct music and P.A. announcements immerse listeners in a more impersonal and industrial space. The audience murmur in Broadcasting House Concert Hall in London captures the intimate ambiance of a live music event. The recording of footsteps and conversation in a sports crowd, as well as the ambient sounds of a Woolworths store with crowds and manual cash registers, add a touch of realism to the collection. The cheering of a group of young people and the roar and applause of a FA Cup Final game create a sense of excitement and energy. Various recordings of laughter, applause, and audience reactions in theater settings add a touch of cultural richness to the collection. From the quiet conversation of a small crowd mainly composed of women to the farcical saying of "Hear, hear" by nine men and women, these sounds offer a diverse range of crowd interactions.
