Cacophony: The Beauty of Silence & Chaos by Soundiron

Cacophony ( kah-kof-oh-nee ) : A discordant and chaotic mixture of sounds. 

Cacophony is easily the most massive collection of live concert hall performance sound effects, room tones, crowd reactions, orchestral tuning drones and incidental sound effects you will find anywhere. As Soundiron accelerates toward technical perfection and hyper-realism in the musical world with the help of technology, it’s important to remember the living flaws and details that make the experience of listening to live music so immersive. What is often most missing is the ghost of the place, the murmur, and roar of the audience, the players tuning up – all of those little sounds in between.
