In 2018, we were lucky enough to attend a traditional Balinese cremation ceremony in Ubud, a sacred event that takes place when a respected member of the community passes away. The community comes together to celebrate life and honor the deceased.

As we were driving to grab lunch, we stumbled upon a large gathering of men near a fire. At the time, we were unaware that a funeral was taking place, and the cremation process was happening right before our eyes. It wasn’t until we spoke with our landlord that we learned about the significance of the event and the traditional customs of the Balinese people.

Our experience in Ubud inspired us to create a sound library of the bonfire, crackling fire, and explosion sounds we heard that day so that others could use them in their projects. This royalty-free sound library is a unique, authentic way to bring the atmosphere of a Balinese ceremony to your work.
