delicate
+ tense
a double bass that's the perfect source for subtle, creeping tension?
we spent a full day at hollywood scoring, one of la' most popular studios, capturing the double bass's light, yet deeply unsettling textures.
we recorded with los angeles-based session musician jules levy, who has worked on countless soundtrack recordings such as beverly hills cop: axel f, babylon, encanto, and many more, and brought his expertise as a session player to the table.
SOLIPSISM has a different kind of tension. it's not loud or aggressive; instead, it whispers and builds, pulling you into a quiet, unsettling space.
we shaped these double bass sounds to be delicate, tense, and incredibly soft – textures that add a truly understated, yet deeply potent, emotion to your score.
this library is all about crafting those subtle, creeping atmospheres that get under your skin.
it's designed to add a unique, psychological layer to your music, making every quiet moment feel weighted with dread.

hollywood scoring (LA) provided the ideal space to really lean into the double bass's quiet, psychological potential, letting us explore those understated, creepy ideas.
it was impressive to watch adam michalak, our session engineer, work.
his expertise on film scores like minority report, godzilla, pacific rim, and venom: let there be carnage, was key to getting that just-right sound for SOLIPSISM's subtle tensions.
we felt something was missing in the world of double bass libraries.
most just focus on raw power or clean sounds. we wanted to explore the quiet side, where tension can sometimes build even more.
that's why we made solipsism.
it's all about sounds that are delicate, tense, and soft, textures that move and breathe in a really subtle, unsettling way.
we pushed past standard playing techniques to find those unexpected, creepy sounds – ones that don't hit you over the head, but slowly get under your skin.
it's a library designed for unique atmospheres, for those moments you want to create tension without being loud.
