Big Fish Audio Stratos

Price: £55.00
Manufacturer: Big Fish Audio
Website: http://www.timespace.com



When we saw ‘Drones and Atmospheres’ as the subtitle for this 4.1GB sample collection from Big Fish Audio, the thought of floor-gazing doom metal bands dressed in monks’ robes immediately sprang to mind. In fact, it’s far more cinematic than that and features few guitars and certainly no blissed-out Mogwai-esque guitar white noise. It’s based heavily on synths, reverbs, percussion and sparse drums, and is curiously reminiscent of some of the legendary soundtrack work found in John Carpenter’s film scores.

Score: 9
