Rain Sounds / Sound credits

Sound credits

Most sounds on Rain Sounds are generated live in your browser. The ones listed under “Real recordings” in the sound menus were made by the people below, out in the weather with a microphone.

Each recordist published their recording as public domain or under CC0, which allows anyone to use it for any purpose. We name them here because the work is theirs.

What we changed: each recording was trimmed to about a minute, levelled, and joined end to start so it can repeat.
