Yet, combined with this is the more subtle side of melancholy with superb pad and texture work. Everything you need to create an uneasy atmosphere or tension mounting cues. Here you will find industrial elements, tense rhythmic and percussive patches with off kilter sequences thrown in. Years later it is interesting to now find the source of the sound design.

For the purpose of the review I will break down my thoughts of each soundset in regards to both Zebra 2 and Dark Zebra.įirst, we begin fittingly where it all began with “Blood” which is a collection of 300 sounds created for the Danish TV Show “The Bridge”. The collection is split into four sections, “Blood”, “Gold”, “Snow” and “Dusk”. The Nordsund Collection for is available The Unfinished Thoughts This is the great first soundset for me to hear the sonic capabilities of Zebra 2, with The Unfinished being the most enigmatic of hosts. While I say I use Omnisphere primarily, I have been looking forward to exploring the world of Zebra 2 and Dark Zebra.

Yet, across the 1,420 sounds contained within the Nordsund collection, it’s a much deeper, more dramatic and often times, hauntingly beautiful experience. While warmer in tone, it still has links with the concept of Nordsund. Hands down, “Amara” is my most used soundset and this is also influenced by the drama shows of Europe. As a primary Omnisphere user over recent years, I have found The Unfinished’s soundsets to work effortlessly within a number of genres and in different musical settings. Whenever Matt Bowdler, aka The Unfinished releases a soundset, previous releases tell me it is going to be something special.
