Actor/comedian/musician/producer/author/all-round good guy Fred Armisen has long been known as one of the most curious
entertainers in the business, creating a wild variety of things for television, film, stage, records and other media.
The latest proof of his inquiring imagination is here: 100 Sound Effects!
The goal was to create a number of specific and evocative sounds, but in addition to being a fun listen _ pure and
simple _ 100 Sound Effects has great value as an industrial tool, with sound effects ready to be used in any number of
entertainment projects. Some follow the basic blueprint, like doors shutting and glass breaking. Others are more
abstract scenarios, but with a track like "Campfire Breakfast Conversation," Fred notes, "They could be used in a movie
or a show as a distant sound. Like: 'Listen, I think I hear campers down that way!' Those can also be played on outdoor
speakers, if you want to make your backyard sound like a popular camping area."
