Wrongtools has introduced its upcoming Kontakt instrument library built from unconventional interactions with a grand piano.
Created with granular processing, ebows, bowed resonances, tape coloration, and experimental signal chains, Pianesque delivers drifting textures, emotional atmospheres, and modern scoring environments.
PIANESQUE begins where the hammer leaves the string. This is not a traditional piano library. It is a study in piano abstractions—where resonance becomes the instrument, and the familiar dissolves into something less obedient. A key is pressed somewhere, but what arrives is something else: drifting harmonics, bowed shadows, submerged chords moving like weather beneath the surface.
Pianesque features
- Piano-derived textures for cinematic and ambient scoring.
- Ebowed, bowed, and processed material shaped through granular techniques.
- Long-form, evolving sustains and unstable harmonic motion.
- Designed for atmosphere, restraint, and emotional weight.
Pianesque for the full version of Kontakt (6.4.2 or newer) is available to pre-order for €27 EUR (regular €54 EUR). The library will be released on May 26th, 2026.
