The Yard

The Yard features a selection of detritus.

From tractor tyres to plastic cones, metal and wood.

Uniquely these sounds are also tuned and re-amped through drums.

This library is great for adding unusual percussive elements to many genres, including for film.

The Yard - Junk, Scrap and Found Sound Transformed, Re-amped and Reimagined

The original Majetone space my neighbours left all sorts of things around the yard outside, I went on a mission sampling in the early, quiet days of the Covid lockdown.

Then taking these back to the studio, tuning, manipulating and re-amping these sounds.

A flexible, unique library with a focus on percussive or sound design elements.

I collated what I had in to ‘drum’ groups, I re-amped the ‘snare’ type sounds through 4 different sized snare drums:

  • A 6” no name snare
  • 10” Pearl Popcorn (90’s Pearl drums are so underrated! Wonderfully made)
  • 12” Majetone
  • 14” Majetone

I thought I’d try tuning some of these one shot samples into instruments – there were some real surprises.

I’ve added the instruments and processing I liked the best.

Hope you enjoy it!
