Loopmasters has introduced the first volume in a new Deep Sampled series of royalty free sample packs by Organic Loops.
Pushing the boundaries of sonic experimentation, Cinematic Cello showcases a unique blend of cello one-shots and loops, expertly produced by Alexander Painter using a variety of expressive techniques, both tonally and percussively.
Alexander Painter is a composer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist based in Brighton, UK. He uses cello and saxophone to create unique, evolving sounds and evocative melodies, often approaching his instruments in unconventional ways. Experimenting with analog tape saturation, granular delays, feedback, and more to process his work, Alex’s recordings also retain a strong acoustic nature, keeping them rooted in the real world. Drawing influence from a broad range of sonic pioneers including Delia Derbyshire, Arthur Russell, and Sonic Youth, Alex attempts to create a unique musical palette.
As well as writing his own film scores, he regularly produces musical toolkits for other composers to use in their soundtracks. This sample pack mirrors these kits; filled with morphing, textural pads, rich swells, and percussive rhythms that would sit equally well in trailer music and songwriter production as they would in hip-hop and drum n bass.
The sample pack is available at the Loopmasters store, priced £19.95 GBP.
