Amsterdam-based composer for film, documentary and contemporary dance, Renger Koning has recently introduced a new Kontakt-powered instrument library built around a damped piano.
Featuring additional layers of bowed strings, textures and noise, Felt & Fog is an intimate prepared piano that aims to push into film score territory rather than pretty background music.
Felt & Fog is a six-layer ambient piano library for Kontakt 8. It’s built for slow music, film cues, documentary underscore, neo-classical sketches, ambient and meditative tracks, atmospheric sound design.
The samples were hand-played without a click track, so every layer drifts at its own natural pace. Two of the six layers are Swarms — evolving harmonic clouds that don’t lock to a grid. Hold a chord and it keeps moving. Nothing repeats in any way you can hear.
Felt & Fog for the full version of Kontakt 8 is available to purchase for €49 EUR.
