YOUR LITTLE ESCAPE
Distant Thunder Sounds
Low rumbles give this distant thunder a sense of space. It is a darker companion to rainfall, with more variation than a steady noise layer. Start quietly and listen to its changing level before adding it to a bedtime mix. Rain and rain on window are natural places to begin.

About this sound
Distant thunder brings low, rolling movement to a soundscape. Its character is a faraway rumble rather than a close, dramatic strike, but it is still a changing recording rather than a constant tone. Keep the level modest if you prefer your background to stay unobtrusive, and listen through the variations before settling on a volume.
A rain layer gives the rumbles a continuous setting. Let rain lead and use thunder as an occasional darker texture underneath, adjusting the channels independently in Your mix. Rain on window gives the same pairing a more sheltered indoor feeling. Winter storm is another option if you want more movement in the weather. Thunder can also play alone, although its changing intensity may be more noticeable without a steady companion. The recording repeats until you pause it, remove it or the timer ends.
Common uses
- Rainy evening ambience
- Resting
