Orange Tree Samples Evolution Modern Nylon v1.2.5 KONTAKT screenshot
KONTAKT - 2,6 GB
There are times when you need the crisp attack of a steel string acoustic guitar, but the distinctive sound of nylon strings is often the perfect choice for a mellower acoustic guitar tone. Evolution Modern Nylon's rich, full tone excels at classical guitar as well as pop/rock guitar tracks. By moving the pick position closer to the bridge and employing the guitar body percussion hits included, you can also achieve convincing flamenco guitar parts, too.

Lux Cache Iritation In Sound Design Part 1: Reclaiming Creativity Through Flaw-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 03 April 2025 | 2 MB
In this Lux Cache article, we interrogate how imperfection—whether technical, emotional, or philosophical—fuels originality. By dissecting the cracks in "polished" workflows, we explore how limitations birth innovation, transforming technical flaws into aesthetic virtues. For our inaugural chapter, the Polish producer dissects the invisible friction of creation, merging raw self-reflection with tactical sound design strategies to weaponize instability, lossy compression and chaos artifact, bridging industrial noise’s embrace of mechanical decay and hyperpop’s fetishization of digital clipping, proving that “technical perfection” is the true creative dead end.

Pulsar Modular P821 MDN Tape v1.0.1 U2B Mac [MORiA] screenshot
MORiA | AU | VST3 | 136.3 MB
P821 MDN Tape is based on Marc Daniel Nelson’s personal Stephens 821 2” tape machine

Which was utilized at the Producer’s Workshop, renowned for producing iconic albums such as The Wall, Aja, Rumours, and others. The P821 signature sound is very open and has a large sonic character, as there is very little electronics and zero transformers in the tape machine, making the sound stage massive and no aggressive compression or clamping down. This is the first plugin of its type where you’re actually hearing TAPE and how it reacts. Now, hearing the P821 MDN Tape plugin recreates that same experience. It’s truly incredible and unlike anything else out there.

Virginia Woolf: Music, Sound, Language by Elicia Clements PDF [EN] screenshot
2019 | University of Toronto Press | ISBN: 9781487519780 | 1.9 MB | 304 Pages | PDF
Arguing that sound is integral to Virginia Woolf's understanding of literature, Elicia Clements highlights how the sonorous enables Woolf to examine issues of meaning in language and art, elaborate a politics of listening, illuminate rhythmic and performative elements in her fiction, and explore how music itself provides a potential structural model that facilitates the innovation of her method in The Waves.
