Urban Explosions and gunfire sounds recorded in a Berlin residential neighbourhood, noise free, with natural reflections from buildings at various distances, both clean single hits and multiples. They are ideal for urban combat, action, war, crime, gangster, thrillers and any explosion in a built-up area. Close intensity with perfect natural perspective, the reverb tails are long and clean. These are 100% tested in film and TV action sequences and just sound really good.

Each file features more than 20 blasts so there are over 1000 unique variations.

A rare set of circumstances allowed this to happen. One New Year’s Eve in Berlin, the law said we weren’t allowed to socialise. The streets were almost completely deserted. The local residents had bought even more fireworks than normal out of lockdown frustration and set them off for 8 hours right across the city. Some people fired guns into the air. I found the empty cartridges in the street the next day. I recorded it all and realised I had captured a unique event.
