Hi Arnoud,

I would like to use this sound as part of an intro on an album themed on Sirens / Mists of Avalon. Would that be ok please?

Thank you for recording and uploading this 🙏

Hi Arnaud, hoping to include your lapping lake water recording within sound track of a non-commercial short film portrait of artist who grew up on shores of Lough Neagh.

Hello!
Hoping to use this for a university theatre show/film (due to covid). The show is only available online for 2 weeks. Will be using different water sounds throughout for layering as it is set on the Colorado River. Thanks for the lovely sound!

This is just the thing for a bit of SFX for a community theatre play I'm involved with. It's going to be playing when a character is trying to climb into a boat. Hope you don't mind if I crop the first and last second so it can be looped indefinitely.
Thanks!

Hi Arnaud, I want to use this sound to augment the sound recorded on location for a short film (for fun, not profit). I hope that's okay?
