Silence+Other Sounds – Hellen: Ghostly Voices & Creatures 👻🎙️

Step into the darkest corners of cinematic sound design with Hellen, a powerful Kontakt library dedicated to ghostly voices, demonic creatures, and otherworldly vocal textures. Created in collaboration with acclaimed vocalist Alessandra Cognetta (aka Psamathes), Hellen delivers an extensive palette of human and inhuman expressions designed to haunt, disturb, and mesmerize.

From multisampled operatic soprano performances to screams, whispers, growls, gasps, yells, and unsettling vocalizations, every sound has been meticulously recorded and transformed. The library is further enriched with animal recordings, metallic friction, bowed effects, and abstract sonic elements, seamlessly blended with the human voice for maximum impact.

Using advanced sound design techniques such as spectral morphing in Kyma, formant shaping, and vowel processing, Hellen evolves raw recordings into a vast collection of chilling sonic identities. Expect ethereal soprano layers, demonic screams, howling laments, sinister laughs, designed creature effects, breathing loops synced to tempo, and even syllables and phrases in a fictional language inspired by ancient Latin 🕯️📜

With 12 expertly crafted Kontakt instruments—both playable and sound-design focused—Hellen is purpose-built for horror, thriller, dark ambient, and cinematic scoring. Whether you are creating haunted atmospheres, terrifying jump-scare stabs, or deeply immersive vocal textures, this library provides modern composers and ambient producers with a truly disturbing and expressive toolkit.

Hellen is not just a vocal library—it is a living, breathing presence that brings fear, tension, and supernatural emotion straight into your compositions 🔥🎬
