A request for Freesounder neilreynolds1980, intended as a soundtrack for the play Dr Faustus at the point the eponymous character is sucked into hell.
A bit of technical information: the basic sound is a stacked set of ‘devil’s intervals’ (augmented fourths) with doubling at the octave, playing an instance of Calf Organ set to a truly horrifying demonic choir patch I created. The rest of the effects are accomplished using automation of this instrument as well as Calf Pulsator and Calf Filter in Ardour.
This sounds much better when downloaded than it does in the Freesound player. The stereo image and sample rate are much reduced in the version you hear in the player.

I kid you not I'm working on a full rewrite of Marlowe's Faust right this minute and I've been scrolling around trying to find audios that match what I imagine Hell opening in the final scene would sound like. No guarantee that this is what I'll land on in the final thing, but you have my utmost admiration and respect lol!
