Sound Dust Releases Drift Prequel

SoundDust has released Drift Prequel, a hybrid Kontakt instrument which they say is built from retired Tone Dust classics. Here's the details in their own words..

Unlike conventional Kontakt libraries, Drift Prequel is an experimental Kontakt instrument built for composers, producers and sound designers looking for something beyond traditional sample libraries. Drift Prequel focuses on exploration and inspiration - blending acoustic instruments, synths and unpredictable modulation and effects into a single creative tool for hybrid traditional textures, ambient music, film scoring and experimental composition.

Drift Prequel is an electro-acoustic ideas machine and a new home for some early Sound Dust instruments that are now heading into retirement.  Before they disappear, they have been lovingly smashed to pieces, combined with new sounds and textures, and gently re-knitted into the DRIFT ecosystem. The result is a strange modular playground where instruments can stack, crossbreed and drift into new forms. Pitch wanders like old tape, noise percolates, tone shifts subtly, nothing stays perfectly still. That's how we like it._
