about

Use double bass for atmosphere, not just low end

Featuring scrapes, breath-like sounds and high-frequency detail, SOLIPSISM uses pitched textures to keep tension moving without dominating the cue. This is quintessential Inlet: five tightly curated sounds, one sharply defined mood, and a double bass used in ways that will make you look at the instrument differently.

interface

Distinct from the start. More you as you shape it.

Choose from five performances, balance the Close and Far mics, then shape the envelope, space, tuning and level. Bring the texture closer when you want to hear more of the scrape and air, or push it back until it becomes a more diffused layer.

story

Why we made it.

We wanted more than another set of one-shot effects

Thomas really wanted to try seagull-like sounds on double bass, but from the beginning we knew the obvious version would be too limited. So Jules Levy improvised the idea across each note, turning it into something sustained, shifting and far more useful.

It worked so well that Jules suggested trying whale-like sounds the same way. We loved what the seagull improvisations had become, so we followed that idea too.

Both came late in our eight-hour session at Hollywood Scoring in Los Angeles, alongside some of the other less conventional material that became SOLIPSISM.
