A very summer sound: a large bee buzzing by the microphones. This is a carpenter bee, commonly referred to as a bumblebee in the united states. Recording can stand for most any buzzing insect, though.
Friday night firework display in bournemouth, uk. August 13th 2021. Field recording of the whole display on the pier. From about a kilometre distance. Waves on the beach, crowds. Some wind noise. Applause at the end. Zoom h4n pro woth rode videomic.
A wonderful slice of small town life. Recorded august 27 2022 at a small town baseball game in southern illinois. Not a huge crowd, but you hear the murmur of parents, kids and of course the crack of the steel bat against the baseball. Especially good with headphones on, as i recorded this in stereo. Equipment: zoom f3. Microphones: em clippy 272 omni-directional microphones on microphone stands located 38 inches apart. Enjoy this timeless summer soundscape representing all that is good. (to paraphrase james earl jones! ).
Waves with an interesting stereo effect. No processing, this is the original recording. Recorded on phone. I was lucky to be on the beach when there were no people there, so there are no extraneous noises.
Field recording of birds in my neighborhood and backyard on the east coast of the u. S. I believe a cardinal is most prominent here, but i am not an ornithologist so cannot say for certain. Some smaller birds (finches?) also audible. Recorded through an open window of a screened porch with a tascam dr-40x. Noise removal done through audition's default parameters.
Late afternoon recording on a hot indian summer day by a meadow, with crickets and birds. Recorded in 32bit float on a zoom f6, and a ms-stereo setup with one sennheiser mkh 416 shotgun, and a ambient ate 308 "emesser" in a røde blimp.
This is not layered or multi-tracked; very active birds this morning! actual 2:00 track of singing. Wide variety of birds. Stereo (large diaphragm condenser (scm900) l and dynamic (sm58) r. Cleaned, eq'd and leveled to approximately -24 lufs. Still quite a range of dynamics!.
The sound of many bubbles, either from within a container, or from a heavy liquid. Good for bubbling sounds from within, let's say, a closed pan, or from something like lava!.
Instant mocha (double choc mocha, to be precise) being stirred using a stainless steel teaspoon in a ceramic mug. Recorded using a neumann tlm102 through a focusrite scarlett 8i6. Some noise reduction applied in adobe audition.

A heavy summer shower recorded from my window with a zoom h2. There are some background noise (child's voice, but i think no car, can't swear to it though) and two claps of far away thunder. The rain becomes lighter in the last 1'30. Free for any use. I'd be happy to know if you used it :-).
