Exhumed synthetic textures from SNAKES OF RUSSIA
Enveloped in the essence of deep sonic exploration, Tenebrae, a collaboration with LA-based artist Joseph Holiday, alias SNAKES OF RUSSIA, delves into his dark, apocalyptic sound. In these texturally rich playable soundscapes, complex modular synth patches, heavy analog subs, and gritty drum samples converge, all intricately processed through chains of unobtanium outboard and tape, unleashing a unique world of dirt and darkness.
This inaugural entry into MNTRA's Artist Series is a chasm into the depths of his distinctive sonic palette. Together they imagined Tenebrae not just as an instrument; but as an exhumed creature, buried for over a century and now resurfaced, bringing the dark mystery of the depths of the earth. Analog outboard processing and gritty tape infuse instant textural vibe into modular and analog synths, screeching bowed instruments, and noisy percussion, bringing forth the unique sonic darkness encapsulated within Tenebrae.
With the transformative power of MNDALA 2, the ever-evolving acoustic synthesis engine, SNAKES OF RUSSIA has brought his sound sculpting expertise to design a inspiring set of 79 bespoke artist presets, alongside the MNTRA collection of 70 Elements presets, and 27 Atelier presets to get you started.
With creative processing being an essential part of the SNAKES OF RUSSIA sound, they also worked with Joseph to create two exclusive effect processors modelling his signature signal chains: BESTIAE (destructive Filters, Drive and Compression in either parallel or series), and DIRTY BUCKETS (a series of gritty Bucket Brigade Delay based reverbs), allowing you to shape the sound dynamically in real time.
