Bonfire Sound Library

While staying in an Airbnb just outside Samara, Costa Rica, I had the unique opportunity to record the sounds of a bonfire. Our hosts had an upstairs tenant who was in the process of cultivating an authentic Costa Rican garden. His method? Slowly burning everything on an acre of land he had recently acquired.

One morning, as he prepared a large bonfire, I knew I couldn't miss the chance to record the fire's crackling sounds. Armed with my DPA 4060 microphone and equipped with a Rycote Windjammer, plus my Zoom H6 recorder, I set out to record the questionable sounds of the fire.

Listen to the crackling, snapping, and whistling of the wood as it burned, the wind's interaction with the fire, and even the distant sound of a horse neighing.

This royalty-free sound library includes high-quality recordings of bonfire sounds, making it an ideal choice for film, video, and music production. I hope you find these sounds as enriching for your projects as I did when recording them.

Whether you're working on a project that requires the ambient sounds of a fire or looking to add a natural element to your work, this library has you covered.
