If you are looking for dark soundscapes and atmospheric pads, sooner or later you will stumble over the fifth module of the well-known Dronar-series from Gothic-Instruments. The 144 patches, based on both synthesizers and organic sounds, were created by the well-known Hollywood sound designer Alessandro Camnasio.

#7: Toontrack EZkeys „MIDI Movie Scores – Horror“

How do you tell a nightmare musically? This not-so-common question was posed by the developers of the MIDI extension „Movie Scores - Horror“ for EZkeys Piano. Inspired by groundbreaking directors of the genre such as Wes Craven and Takashi Shimizu, they created a MIDI-collection that includes slow, building passages, rampant staccatos and eerie disharmonies. By the way, to use this product you need an installed and activated version of EZkeys Piano.

#9: Krotos „Dehumaniser – Simple Monsters“

With the Simple-Monsters-Edition of the well-known Dehumaniser from Krotos, you can easily create monster-sounds of any kind.

The Krotos „Dehumaniser - Simple Monsters" and the big version, the „Dehumaniser 2", are available at reduced prices in the Best Service Shop right now.

#10: Ueberschall „Dark Guitar Tunes“

When you think of spooky music, you think of shrill piano sounds, grueling string arrangements or deep sub-basses. But guitars can also cause a queasy feeling. A particularly good example is the soundtrack of the zombie movie "28 Days Later". The Ueberschall library "Dark Guitar Tunes" delivers a wide range of gloomy guitar sounds in the form of loops and phrases, which take up around 3.5 GB of hard drive space.
