RAST SOUND

LIBRARY OVERVIEW

Sounds of Cambodia is recorded in coordination with Cambodian Living Arts and

leading musicians.Wide range of Cambodian instruments and vocals, most of them

sampled for the first time in detail.

The music of Cambodia is derived from a mesh of cultural traditions dating back to the ancient Khmer Empire, India, China and the original indigenous tribes living in the area before the arrival of Indian and Chinese travelers. Cambodian Art music is highly influenced by ancient forms as well as Hindu forms. Religious dancing, many of which depict stories and ancient myths, are common in Cambodian culture.

Although being from deeply traditional and authentic roots, we were most impressed

and pleasantly surprised with the usability of these sounds in contemporary context

and for further sound design.

We have created responsive playable solo instruments for Kontakt, endless patterns, phrases, words and more. Vocals, strings, wind and percussion instruments are

available through Kontakt as well as WAV.

We would like to thank Jaim Cleeland for having a key role as a co-producer and all musicians, technicians involved.
