"Welcome to Frost, where the line between chaos and silence is as thin as ice on winter glass and every note resonates with the cold aura of Nordic Noir. In this realm, the darkness vibrates with life, just waiting for the maestro brave enough to conduct the unseen orchestra. Thought you had experienced the dark side of Dark Zebra HZ? You have heard nothing yet…"

Frost represents the pinnacle of dark cinematic sound design in our series for U-He Dark Zebra (Zebra HZ), standing out as the most intense and darkest soundset we have released to date.

Inspired by the bone-chilling atmosphere of Nordic Noir, the complex web of intrigue of spy dramas, and the gripping, edgy tension found in Euro Noir. Frost is a journey into the heart of darkness in sound.

This soundset contains 180 synth presets meticulously crafted by Sonic Underworld and curated by Luftrum. It features a diverse range of presets, from layered underscore loops, arpeggios, and sequences that radiate a somber, dark, and twisted aura - designed to set a brooding scene - to basses and basslines that throb with a mix of distortion and atonality, effectively capturing a sense of suspense and unease.

The ambient pads and drifty synths, are deeply immersive, evoking the ghostly whisper of winter landscapes synonymous with Nordic storytelling. The percussive elements are as crisp and sharp as ice, piercing through the silence with clarity that cuts to the bone, while adding to the soundset's cinematic depth. Frost is perfect for weaving narratives that linger in the memory well beyond the story's end.

Drawing its inspiration from the haunting scores of The Killing (Frans Bak), the stark soundscapes of The Snowman (Marco Beltrami), The Valhalla Murders (Petur Thor Benediktsson), the Millennium Trilogy (Jacob Groth), Bordertown (Kaae & Batz), and the gritty textures of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross). And last but not least, it honors the legacy of Trapped (Jóhann Jóhannsson, Rutger Hoedemaeker and Hildur Guðnadóttir) making it a must-have for composers looking to infuse their music with the distinct, dark elegance of Nordic sound.

Frost is made for the Dark Zebra HZ which is included in Zebra Legacy. Installing the soundset is effortless, requiring just a simple drag & drop onto Zebra's user interface. This one-click process installs the entire soundset along with all NKS files, ensuring full NKS compatibility for users of Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol hardware. A PDF install guide is included for convenience.

Disclaimer: Play at your own risk! We strongly advise against playing these presets alone, especially under the cover of night. Reported side effects include a significant drop in temperature, the eerie feeling of a lurking presence, thick dense fog, and unexpected chills. These sounds have the power to evoke an atmosphere so intense, they could wake ancient Norse gods and make the bravest Viking shudder.

Gemina II – Omnisphere Soundbank
Price: $ 79.00

Available at https://www.luftrum.com/

In a world where silence reigns, where the echoes of civilization linger like ghosts, emerges a collection of Omnipshere 2 presets that plunges you into the heart of a postapocalyptic and dystopian reality.

Presenting Gemina II, the highly anticipated sequel to the Omnisphere bestseller Gemina, which received a remarkable 9.2/10 review in Future Music Magazine.

This sequel delivers 400 brand new Omnisphere presets that captures the essence of a broken tomorrow and expand your arsenal of cinematic, postapocalyptic and dystopian sounds.

Dark corroded sequences, warped basses, and decayed rhythmic pulses form the backbone of this expansive soundset. Atmospheric pads that swell like the last rays of sunlight piercing through nuclear clouds. Irradiated soundscapes and textures are harsh, raw and unapologetically real, while gritty keys resonate with the melancholy of forgotten dreams. 

It’s a narrative told through the eerie beauty of empty skyscrapers and the relentless pulse of a world that refuses to die. Navigate through salvaged polysynths and evocative hybrid instruments, gripping FX, hits and transitions, Gemina II sparks inspiration amidst the ruins, adding depth and intensity to your compositions.

This Omnisphere soundbank is perfectly suited for producers, film and game composers alike.

Gemina II is inspired by artists like Atticus Ross (Book of Eli), Ben Salisbury & Geoff Barrow (Annihilation, Ex Machina), Gustavo Santaolalla (The Last of Us), and Mark Morgan (Wasteland 2), while drawing inspiration from modern visionaries such as zYnthetic (Soundtrack for the Apocalypse), Inon Zur (Fallout 4), Michael Hodges & Gerald Trottman (Blade Runner Black Lotus) and John Powell & David Buckley (Jason Bourne).

Embrace the chaos, find beauty in the broken, and let the sounds lead you through the ruins of a world waiting to be reborn. 

Gemina II requires Omnisphere 2.8 or later. All presets has a few dB headroom and include assignments for modwheel and velocity. The presets are organized in official Spectrasonics native categories.

Once again, grab your survival radio, dive back into the shattered world and continue your journey through the desolate landscape…

TAL-Pha Silica
Release date 11/22/24
Available at https://www.luftrum.com/silica-soundset-for-tal-pha/

-------------------
We are excited to introduce Silica, a soundset for TAL-Pha, featuring 150 carefully sculpted patches inspired by the retro-futuristic sounds of the mid-80s, combined with a modern, cinematic twist.

So, what is TAL-Pha you may ask? It’s a faithful emulation of the Roland Alpha Juno II, an iconic analog synth released in 1985, with the MKS-50 as its rack version. The synth was used by artists like Orbital, Vince Clarke, Faithless, Massive Attack, The Prodigy, Howard Jones and many more.

TAL-Pha offers the classic analog sound of the hardware, but is further enhanced with modern flexibility and many additional features (it even reads sysex from the hardware).

In Silica, you will find everything from animated synth arpeggios to fat bass lines and basses, supported by lush pads and a wide selection of vibrant poly synths and keyboard sounds, that evoke the sounds of the mid-80s. There’s also a selection of hybrid drum loops, soundscapes and sound effects. The result is a versatile collection designed to be instantly usable, with no fillers, just authentic, character-rich synth goodness, that works equally well for retro-inspired productions or cutting-edge modern media.

Influences include classic artists of yesteryear, such as Vince Clarke, OMD, Howard Jones, Fluke, FSOL, and The Prodigy, with strong ties to today’s modern composers such as Mac Quayle (Mr. Robot), Cliff Martinez (Neon Demon), and Lorne Balfe (Ghost in the Shell).

We have teamed up with TAL to bring you 10% discount on TAL-Pha. With your Silica purchase, you will receive a code that can be used to get 10% off TAL-Pha, but the code isn’t limited to TAL-Pha, you can also use it to save on other TAL products.

November 22: TAL Software is having a Black Friday sale with 20% off their products. This discount stacks with the 10% that comes with Silica, so you can get a total of 30% off by using the code included with Silica – but only for a very limited time!
