Sound Effects

Sound Effects records are just that -- collections, usually including dozens of tracks, which feature all manner of sounds and effects useful when constructing a haunted house or producing a radio program. For whatever use listeners put them to, they're a fringe genre and not artistic (or musical) at all.
