SCORCHED EARTH, CINEMATIC FORCE
SCORCHED is the first chapter in the Wasteland Series, a cinematic sound library shaped by fire, destruction, and the silence that follows. It captures a world in collapse: scorched machines, flickering systems, distant sirens, and the weight of what’s left behind. Every sound feels heavy, fractured, and alive with tension.
Built for dystopian storytelling, SCORCHED moves between explosive energy and eerie stillness, offering a focused, immersive palette for bold, atmospheric work. It stands alone or as the beginning of a larger journey through ruined worlds, each volume revealing a different face of collapse.
What's Included
​Cinematic, distorted, electronic, and industrial rhythms ​
​
​28 x Distorted Impacts
Saturated, aggressive impacts full of tonal grit and edge. Each hit is sculpted with rich distortion and textured layers, perfect for broken worlds, mechanical violence, or dystopian environments.
​
30 x Explosive Hits
High-impact, wide-frequency blasts for maximum drama. These explosive hits are built to cut through any mix, with enveloping tails and volatile energy, ideal for action, destruction, or cinematic tension.
​
20 x Industrial Strikes
Raw, mechanical strikes with heavy metallic tones and brutal transient design. Featuring factory hits, pipe slams, and synthetic steel-on-steel collisions.
​
27 x Layering Impacts
Mid-weight, supportive hits designed to blend with other categories. Use these for added depth, to emphasize accents, or to shape your own unique composite impacts.
​
21 x BRAAMS
Massive, cinematic low brass and synth BRAAMS, designed for tension, power, and scale. These earth-shaking stabs range from slow-burning pulses to explosive tonal slams, built to anchor trailers, reveals, or transitions.

About us.
PURPOSE-BUILT SOUND,
YEARS IN THE MAKING
Puzzlebox is a sound design studio focused on high-quality, concept-driven audio tools for composers, editors, and creators working in cinematic spaces.
​
While SCORCHED is our first public release, we’ve spent years developing white-label libraries and tools behind the scenes. This launch marks a shift, a move toward building under our own name, with full creative direction and attention to detail.
​
Every element of SCORCHED was shaped over months of focused development, with a clear goal: deliver a library that feels curated, purposeful, and uncompromising in quality. It sets the foundation for what Puzzlebox stands for and what comes next.
