Hiljaisuus Sound Library
Waveform of a dawn recording at Pyhä-Luosto

Quiet places, recorded

Lossless ambience from Finnish forests, lakes and fells — since 2017

Hiljaisuus means silence. The library collects long, unedited field recordings made far from roads: lake ice settling at night, wind in old-growth spruce, cranes over a bog at four in the morning. Sound editors, game studios and radio producers download the masters here.
