While in Primm, Nevada, we had the chance to record the sounds of short-course off-road racing: engines, dirt, and the crunch of tires.

The event was organized by SNORE (Southern Nevada Off Road Enthusiasts), and although our visit wasn’t planned or official, it turned into a great opportunity to capture some raw, high-quality sounds for the Soundly library.

Thanks to the person who just signed up for a year's subscription to access over 150000 #SoundEffects and #RoyaltyFree #music tracks for £30. £30 for that many assets is a pretty good deal. What's more, because they were kind enough to click through my affiliate link, Zapsplat pays me some, which helps support my activism and generally keep a roof over my head. If anyone wants to join them the link is zapsplat.com/?aff=11 #PostProduction #GameAudio #Samples #Indie #MutualAid #SFX

I obviously love the freedoms & possibilities things like 3D printing has brought us - but there's something special about the efficiencies & creativity of using found parts & available materials to make otherworldly & cool-looking things 🙌

This, the original, full-size ED-209, which STILL EXISTS! 🤯, is one of the best examples of that in all of film & SFX history 🤩

The decline of SFX serves as a valuable lesson regarding the challenges of commodifying a subculture, highlighting the resilience of outsider communities. Prior to the rise of electronic dance music (EDM), dance music had thrived for decades as a grassroots and often marginalized community, with its members cautious of any efforts to exploit its cherished authenticity. Despite SFX's attempts to engage with a new generation of dance music enthusiasts, it struggled to resonate with the dedicated core audience at the heart of the genre. SFX developed within the EDM boom, a time when it seemed that electronic dance music would dominate the industry. However, the transition of a subculture into the mainstream can often alienate its foundational audience. As casual fans shift their interests elsewhere, a significant void is left behind.

The #CorridorCrew couch has seated many brilliant visitors, but few if any as amazing & delightful as Nick Park & Merlin Crossingham of Aardman 😻

Join them for a bit of Wallace & Gromit memory lane & some peeks behind the curtain, from the very first short "A Grand Day Out" (the Moon landing one) to "Vengeance Most Fowl" 🎥💛

Here are the latest news regading my #TMSnake #game for #rc2014 and #TMS9918a #graphics.

The video below shows the current state of affairs, and I've just added some limited #sfx to the game - however the recording below did not capture the beepy beeps for some reason.

There is one last tweak I need to add in terms of gameplay but the final release is "coming soon" ™️ 😏
