As I check my inbox each morning, there seems to be a steady stream of companies building libraries with “Celebrity” composers or indeed instrumentalists. Spitfire obviously with Hans Zimmer range etc, the fantastic Joshua Bell violin from Embertone and now Orchestral tools with JXL, the brilliant Harry G-W and Jeff Russo etc...I guess the idea is borrowed from the celebrity chef world, buy the latest Mary Berry cook book and you can bake cakes as good as I do.
I understand many companies and composers develop their own libraries during their downtime in the summer, in preparation for the next seasons shows, so they try and find an individual sound so everyone is not using the same stuff... very smart !
Other than a Gordon Ramsay sample library (Lots of swearing I guess !) what composers would inspire you if the released a sample library. A quick shout out to my current favorite composer, Anne Dudley. She has been writing great TV and Film music for decades. Recently for the movie Hustle, Poldark and I just finished watching “Singapore Grip” which once again showed her versatility...
