MALEVENTUM 2：美洲原住民的奥术长笛
Maleventum 2 是一个 Kontakt 图书馆，其灵感来自古老的美洲原住民前西班牙文化的民族长笛。继广受好评的基于维京战号的 Maleventum 1 之后，我们与来自阿根廷的音乐家和乐器制造商 Nomada Ceramica 合作，致力于忠实再现 3000 多年前阿兹特克、玛雅和印加文明的长笛。
我们录制了数量惊人的原始阿兹特克长笛和口哨、双长笛、稀有长笛（Antara Nazca）、死亡哨和小雕像（Estatuillas）、Tlapitzali（一种典型的安丁乐器）、迪吉里杜管、战争小号（称为“Trompeta Moche”） ‘，一种具有特殊声音的虎头乐器），以及一种名为 Vasija Silbadora（’耳语容器’）的口哨，它使用由两个容器组成的液压系统来创造一种怪异的、令人回味的、生物式的叫声.
所有这些乐器都是基于 Quimivil 考古发现的独一无二的作品，Quimivil 是阿根廷的一个地区，该地区拥有古老的印加文明最重要的遗址之一。
该系列还包括来自罗马尼亚和土耳其典型牧羊笛 Kaval 的样本，其独特的声音非常适合史诗类型。
大量采样工作的结果是收集了一系列长笛乐句、动物式长笛哀号、不和谐的长笛颤音、高音哨子尖叫、打猎电话、可演奏的连奏长笛乐器、纹理和垫子等等。
Maleventum 2 中包含的每一种声音和乐器都会立即唤起被遗忘的时代、原住民军队和战士、神秘的萨满仪式、史诗般的战斗、未受污染的风景以及由神秘教派唤起的传奇精神的场景。
Maleventum 2 适用于寻找独特、精心制作的声音以丰富他们的作品的电视、电影和游戏作曲家和声音设计师。它特别适合史诗类型，特别是幻想和黑暗时代的电影。它将是一个非常有用的工具，可以为恐怖和惊悚作曲家以及黑暗电子音乐和环境音乐的制作人提供大量灵感。
Maleventum 2 不是 Maleventum 1 的扩展。它是一个基于完全不同的声音和乐器的全新库，可以独立于 Maleventum 1 使用。请看底部的视频演示。

MALEVENTUM 2: ARCANE FLUTES OF NATIVE AMERICA
Maleventum 2 is a Kontakt library inspired by ethnic flutes from ancient native American pre-Hispanic cultures. Following the popularly acclaimed Maleventum 1 based on Viking war horns, we’ve collaborated with Nomada Ceramica, a collective of musicians and instrument makers from Argentina, committed to faithfully reproduce flutes from the Aztec, Maya and Incas civilizations of over 3000 years ago.
We’ve recorded a staggering amount of original Aztec flutes and whistles, double flutes, rare panflutes (Antara Nazca), death whistles and statuettes (Estatuillas), Tlapitzali (a typical Andine instrument), didgeridoos, war trumpets (known as ‘Trompeta Moche’, a tiger-headed instrument with a peculiar sound), and a one of a kind whistle called Vasija Silbadora (‘Whispering Vessel’), which uses an hydraulic system made of two vessels to create an eerie, evocative, creature-esque call.
All these instruments are literally unique pieces based on the archeological finds in Quimivil, a region in Argentina which hosts one of the most significant sites of the old Incas civilization.
The collection also includes samples from Kaval, a shepherd flute typical of Romania and Turkey, with an unique sounds that fits the epic genre very well.
The result of this massive work of sampling is a collection of flute phrases, animal-esque flute wailings, dissonant flute trills, hi pitched whistle screams, hunt calls, playable legato flute instruments, textures and pads and much more.
Each sound and instrument contained in Maleventum 2 instantly evokes scenes of forgotten ages, aboriginal armies and warriors, arcane shamanic rituals, epic battles, uncontaminated landscapes, and legendary spirits evoked by mystical cults.
Maleventum 2 is for TV, film and game composers and sound designers looking for unique, carefully crafted sounds to enrich their compositions. It fits particularly well the epic genre, with specific regard to fantasy and dark age movies. It will be a very useful tool to provide plenty of inspiration for horror and thriller composers as to producers of dark electronic music and ambient.
Maleventum 2 is NOT an expansion of Maleventum 1. It’s a brand new library based on totally different sounds and instruments, which can be used independently from Maleventum 1. Please have a look at the video demonstrations at the bottom.
