Explore the Dark Sounds of Aztec Death Whistles
Ultrasonic Death Whistle (UDW) was designed as an introduction to MNTRA's powerful MNDALA Sound Sculpture Engine. The combination of these two opens the door for unparalleled creative possibilities with MNTRA's leading-edge ultrasonic quality sampling.
Performed by MNTRA's Founder - Composer & Multi-instrumentalist Brian D’Oliveira, UDW offers a window into their collection of rare pre-Columbian death whistles that were found during their research and development. Some of them were even handcrafted in their studio to expand creative sound possibilities, and many of these death whistles were featured in the production of multiple Award Winning AAA Video Game soundtracks.
UDW’s video-game audio-inspired interactive scene allows for non-linear multidimensional control and patch creation for intuitive yet seamless musical expression.
Each Death Whistle is named to represent its characters. Having been sculpted by hand, their sounds are recognizably unique, each sample map representing a different Death Whistle.
