Encanto, The Mother, Dora and The Lost City of Gold and many more!
“Forest Kingdom 3 and Quetzal for the new Engine Player are breathtaking additions to my creative toolkit. The rich textures and evocative soundscapes gives me a wonderful palette, perfect for projects that demand an immersive, organic feel. From the mystical flutes, to exotic percussion, and enchanting vocals, every instrument is beautifully crafted and versatile. I’ve integrated these unique sounds into many of my scores including Encanto, The Mother, Dora and The Lost City of Gold, among others. The Forest Kingdom and Quetzal tool boxes provide depth and dimension for developing ideas quickly. The sounds allow me to elevate the cinematic storytelling experience. I have been using Engine based products for years. These sounds are an essential part of my writing template.”

The Forest Kingdom library has been an inspiring addition to my palette. The performance legato featured on the solo ethereal voice is programmed remarkably well and I´ve used a variety of the library´s sounds on several of my most recent film scores including Snow White and The Huntsman
Neal Acree
American composer of film, television, and video game music (World of Warcraft and Overwatch).
Eduardo Tarilonte’s libraries never cease to inspire and open doorways to sonic worlds we never knew we couldn’t live without. Imaginative and evocative, Forest Kingdom 3 takes it to the next level and will firmly rooted in my palette for a long time to come.
David Arkenstone
With 3 Grammy nominations, 20 Billboard hits, and millions of fans worldwide, David Arkenstone has established himself as one of the best contemporary instrumental musicians of our time. Arkenstone was also a member of the composing team who developed the music for Blizzard Activision´s World of Warcraft videogame´s Cataclysm expansion.
Eduardo has expanded on the already beautiful Forest Kingdom series with another inspirational sound tool. It’s quite fun for me to just hold one note down in the Soundscapes section and immediately get inspired and then add some of the other percussive and melodic sounds in the library. Instant song!'
