You Know What’s Cool? One Billion. The number is so big it is hard to think about ever seeing anything quite so large, let alone our company achieving something THAT BIG. Since launching at the end of 2008, we have achieved ONE BILLION LISTENS. Amazing. Hopefully along the way we’ve been able to bring you [...]
Growing up playing video games (still do) I think most people would recognize some of these sounds from the past. They are permanently etched in our minds with the many hours, days, even weeks playing them until reaching the ultimate victory of conquering the game. What do we have to show for our efforts? Memorable [...]
Just like a long-running TV series or movies that pump out sequel after sequel, video games are right there in the mix as part of a medium that has franchise collections full of memorable sound quotes. I’ve been around long enough to notice some characters span a decade or two, so let’s reflect back on [...]
With summer coming to an end soon and school starting back up, now is the time to squeeze in that last minute vacation or road trip and head on out to explore this big orb we call Earth. Or, you can pretend you are in a tropical place and have the talent to surf alongside [...]
Here at Hark we don’t just have movie, TV & video game sound clips. We also have user uploaded collections (which you can do for free as well) that are full of sound effects and all-around awesomeness. I’m going to take a little time to introduce you to some of the more noteworthy collections here [...]
When I was growing up I played a lot of video games, I guess you can say I still play my fair share as an adult. I started out on an Atari 2600, then 8-bit NES, Super NES, Sega Genesis, Nintendo 64, so on and so forth. The games back then were much harder than [...]
Well, well, well Mr. Chris Hansen from Dateline NBC’s ‘To Catch a Predator’. Who’s the predator now? Cheating on your wife and thinking that cameras don’t exist (you do know that you host a hidden camera TV show, right?). To celebrate your wonderfully misguided direction in life, I would like to share a mini-soundboard for [...]
As a game that simply defined the 1980′s Nintendo’s ‘Super Mario Brothers (1985)’ remains, to this day, incredibly addictive and fun to play. I’m not even going to begin to investigate how many sequels, spin-offs and side projects those wacky plumbers have been featured in. ’Super Mario Bros.’ is a sequel to ‘Mario Bros. (1983)’ [...]
Every day we serve well over 1,000,000 sound effects from television, movies, and more. One of our most popular categories, probably to no one’s surprise, is fart noises. But, who are the most frequent listeners? I looked at our logs for last month to see who visited the Fart Sounds collection and this is what [...]
We’ve all found ourselves at one point or another discovering a video game, whether by deliberately looking for a distraction from work or school, based on a friend’s recommendation, or from something we’ve read.
