Overview

Leveraging resources available only to Hollywood’s top sound artists, Academy Award®-winning sound artist Richard King (Dune: Part Two, Oppenheimer) has created a comprehensive collection of real world destruction. Wreckage contains carnage of every kind, including rarely captured events such as building demolitions; cars and aircraft being dropped, crushed, and torn apart; and concrete road barriers dragged through debris. Many of these were recorded from multiple perspectives, capturing the sheer weight and scale of the destruction up close and at a distance.

But it’s not all massive impacts and crunches – there’s also an assortment of construction and building sounds, as well as “smaller” destruction sound effects covering a range of materials. These useful sweeteners include wooden splinters, creaks, and groans; metal and plastic being pried apart and cut through; glass and ceramics cracking and shattering; and even a collection of tool sounds like crowbars, hammers, and objects mangled by hydraulic shears. All of these recordings are raw and natural-sounding for maximum realism, perfect for manipulation & layering.
