Great idea GEx :tu:
I hope this will be as useful as Creavion's texture thread.

OK, here's some more.
The "Web Archive" contains a mix, but there is plenty there that can also be used in a commercial project.

Damn that was a good find.
After amusing myself making a loop that could only be described as "Darth Vader asleep on the Death Star, dreaming of his child-hood" (or maybe it was a nightmare).

I then had a mix that sounded like sitting next to a water-wheel, early in the morning just after sun-rise.
I feel a new account coming-on.
Sheer bliss, though I wanted to make the sound of laying on a beach, with the sea washing back and forth.

CC-license or totally free?

Can't see any reference to CC licences, but their licence says free if your project is free.
Pasted their terms here anyway.

They do allow commercial use with written permission from them, but that is not much of an issue here anyway :D

...oops, I just noticed the GV Sound links needed changing.
Done.
