Greetings Patrons,
I'm happy to announce the release of the 29th SoundPad, Cthulhu. I've been working on mythos themed 10-minute ambiences for the last couple of weeks and it really started to make sense that I create a set of utility sounds around the idea.
There are, ...

Here's a terrible place where most patients never check out. The horror scenario of being locked away in a cold and heartless facility is a classic trope for a reason.
This can be a Lovecraftian horror story or a shadowy future/past society that imprisons its ...

Greetings Patrons,
I've been on a bit of a Cthulhu kick recently. Last week, I created an Investigator's Office, which is where most Cthulhu mythos games either start or, eventually arrive. It's the equivalent of D&D's tavern in many ways.
Since Lovecraft's stories were a...

I've gone back in time this week. Boston, 1919. This is the world of H.P. Lovecraft. You're in a private detective's office and have just been asked to look into some strange occurrences. The office is a bit of a wreck. In fact, you've been sleeping here more often than n...

I know many of you have been asking for this for a loooong time, and it's something I've been in various stages of working on for a year. Finally, it was the Moulinette Cloud platform for Foundry that made the most sense of how to deliver sounds to Foundry game sessions. ...

Here's a fairly dramatic scene in which you, and possibly others, find yourself in the back of a horse-drawn wagon. Your destination is unclear. This is very much styled on the opening scene of Skyrim, so you could be on the way to your own execution. Or, it could be a go...

One of the first RPGs I played with my kids was Monte Cook's Numenera. I remember, it had just come out and was the hot new thing. So I had to get it. I think we only ended up playing it a couple of times - I think I wasn't really sure how to GM it to be honest. But what ...

I have really fond memories of watching SeaQuest DSV when it was on television in the early 90s. I'm a huge Roy Scheider fan so anything he was in, I was going to at least check out. While it was only around for 3 seasons, it changed (for the worse) after the first ...

I love outposts as story telling settings. Settlements in the middle of nowhere, forged by access to a single resource, or by proximity to something strategic. Deep Space Nine's wormhole to the delta quadrant, The Thing's polar research station, whaling towns, religious mi...

Here's a TV style, dramatic underscore track that I finally polished up. It's all synths (now) and electronic instruments so I'd classify it as scifi/modern. And of course, cyberpunk. I mean, the title!
It's designed for suspense, for sneaking around, for wait...

I set out this week to write a fairly action oriented piece that wasn't EPIC. Something that could work in a wide variety of situations. Battles, chases, tension, even journeying. It's the kind of thing I get lots of requests for.
I used a selection of traditional f...

The first hints of (actual) autumn have arrived in NYC and with that, I always get a bit excited. What started as a fairly dark and somber ambience at the start of last week, slowly morphed into an action oriented escape track. I think this is, in no small part, due to th...

Greetings Patrons,
For this week's ambience, I decided to destroy last week's ambience.
Where once stood flocks of sheep, and grazing cows, now stand twisted and evil creatures. Fields that bore wholesome vegetables now lie in rot. I think they may glow a bit as well.
However yo...

I've returned to NYC after a much needed holiday at the beach with my family. I can't believe that (here in the northern hemisphere) summer is coming to an end.
It was probably with this in mind that I was thinking about farming and the harvest.

Here's the 28th entry in the SoundPad series, Secret Agent.
I've been working on this off and on for several weeks. During that time, I watched many (many!) James Bond films and attempted to distill them, as best I could, into some basic story telling audio...

It was hopeful and positive, but with the tiniest undercurrent of excitement. I kept working on it and decid...

Greetings patrons,
I thought I was being so clever with this title.
The idea was that it was a riff on the 1972 Bruce Lee film, "Fist of Fury", except with dwarves and a massive forge for making weapons and armor. Well, as I was finishing it, I googled "Forge of Fury" for kicks,...

Here's an ambience that started as a request for "a seaside jungle". One of those 'Lost' style beaches where there's ocean, a stretch of sand and then dense trees. There's a play between the waterfall and the surf which I quite liked as well.
As I'm always intereste...
