Icescapes

Snow & Ice Percussion SFX Library

Icescapes is a collection of atmospheric leads, ambient synths, textured soundscapes, and snow-and-ice sound effects inspired by winter. The wintery pond sounds were crafted by skipping stones, ice chunks, and pebbles across a frozen pond in a Rocky Mountain canyon, capturing the sci-fi zinging effect of flexural waves - bending sound waves amplified by the ice sheet and canyon walls.

Snow and ice instruments include impacts, slides, and foley recorded in deep snow, designed for use as kicks, snares, hi-hats, or sound-design elements. The collection features 83 sound-designed tones, pads, synth-scapes, and drones, blending natural textures with creative sonic alchemy for limitless musical possibilities.
