Western Tunes for the Open Trail

Frontier sounds for westerns, cowboy-themed games and modern outdoor videos: Back On The Trail for riding and hiking, Bonfire and Camp Out for evenings by the fire, and Brighter Day for sunrise over open country. Kick up some dust to match.

How to score a western or camping video

For camping and cookout videos, mix outdoor sounds from our nature sound effects quietly under the music.
Add birds and insects with animal sounds, so the soundtrack has a place as well as a mood.
In a showdown, cut between the two faces on the beat, framing a little tighter each time, then drop the music out entirely for the draw.
Grade toward warm, sun-bleached yellows and soft contrast, so the picture feels as dusty and open as the music.
Choose tracks with the MP3, then mix from the WAV, especially once campfire crackle and wind are layered underneath.
For a trip abroad rather than across the prairie, see world and folk music.
