    Hey all-
    I'm looking for something I read about here awhile ago. It was a site with downloadable recordings of common sounds, like someone unwrapping a CD, or chewing something crunchy. Kinda like the first 10 seconds of this.

    Anyone know the site I'm talking about?

    Thanks!

    No, but we had one of those reality TV shows years ago where teams got dumped at one end of the country with minimal $ and had to get to the other end and the team that had the most money at the finish line won. The idea was that they'd work or sell stuff, or whatever on the way north.

    One enterprising team bought some recording gear, made a CD of just those types of sounds.

    Google found a few sites: http://www.google.com/search?q=background+sounds

    Google's gotten me closer, but still not dead on. This was just almost like a long CD of these sounds, all playing in kinda a composed setting. It was actually pleasing to listen to.

    Thanks!

    I used to have a whole library of that sort of thing...sorry, I can't find the CDs to get the name of them.
