REQ: Felt Instruments Blisko Viola
Blisko [blʹisko] Viola is the first part of an unique collection of three string libraries that dare to be different. Progressive string textures with a constant sense of motion, captured through amazing analogue kit. A project of love.
This is not yet another strings library. It’s not designed to be bread-and-butter, nor is it following any zeitgeist. Sampled humanly, it really feels like being in a room with a great player. Or up to three, in fact, because we overdubbed everything intelligently, changing playing styles and positions.
Inspired by the works of John Luther Adams, Henryk Górecki, Ben Frost and Ben Salisbury & Geoff Barrow, even the simplest, softest patches have a sense of constant motion, that gets denser and more emotional as you move through the dynamic layers.
The library was recorded through a beautiful collection of hand-made microphones, going into vintage Neumann, Telefunken and REDD-style tube preamps. The kit was hand-picked for it’s character.
You choose between two close and two room signals and blend between them to your liking. And since we recorded in a dry studio, even the room mics are tight.
Whether you need an instrument to create evocative organic textures or a tool to bring life to your existing string libraries, Blisko has you covered.
