Silent Hill Heaven

Thanks to VIVI, i was able to find the baritone guitar sample used in "Lives wasted away" from Shattered Memories. It's called "Danelectro Baritone" and can be found in the "M-Tron" sampler. I'm sure Akira used some more samples from this library. I'll check it out some...

Thanks to VIVI, i've come to the conclusion that this is the pad in "Alone in the Town" that plays at 1:19 and onward: http://www.4shared.com/music/MYVeJ7iK/MusicFX_04_-_SH2.html It's called "Music FX 04" and comes from the "AMG 160db: the Bass&Drum interface" libra...

Nice finds Peron! I think i've found the pad that was used from 0:30 and onwards in "Alone in the Town" from Silent Hill 2: 1. "Atmosphere 01" from "260DB: The Drums&Bass interface" It doesn't sound exactly the same as it does on the song, but i think he cut some bi...

^ Speaking of that "Ice" sound, that same opening sample is also used in Half-Life 2 (at a different pitch) and it also plays in the film 28 Days Later, at one point. It seems to be quite the popular sample! Also, speaking of 28 Days Later, at 0:50 of "The Beginning" , you'll he...

Yamaoka tends to stick with certain companies in terms of sample libraries. Looking over our past discoveries, it seems clear that he favours products from Big Fish Audio , Sony/Sonic Foundry , Spectrasonics and Zero-G , so I would investigate any ambient/trip-hop/downtempo/industrial/experimental/...

I'm checking the Sony (Sonic Foundry) libraries since a few of Akira's samples have been found there. It seems highly logical that he would've used some of these since they've most likely been supplied from Konami. EDIT: Found loads of libraries, but so far, not really any samples that haven't been ...

Thanks VIVI, I really appreciate you doing all this!

Found a few samples a while back. Can't remember the names, but I'm currently looking through the libraries again, so I'll write back here once I locate them :-)' In Loopmasters: Atalanta Chill, I found the following: 1. "ATL_75_Drumloop_01" - It sounds a lot like the filtered beat in &quo...

The opening train yard ambience used in "Dreams of Leaving" (Homecoming) and the high pitched pad sound used in "The Darkness that Lurks in Our Minds" (Silent Hill 2) are from the Sony library Ambient Realms . I'm almost certain there are others from this library, but I can't qu...

Found a sample used in Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.

It's called "HARMOICCLVR" from EastWest's Twisted Textures. It can be heard in the track "Lost Truth"

I would maybe recomend... Mmm... PJ Harvey: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHuk3ody8Jw The Gathering: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bn0OJLpavtc And Nátura: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzyFYitCrvI&feature=channel_video_title Lol, just joking about the last one, that's a band i had a few tim...

Hey guys... Is just me or the sample TP Misc FX1 from AMG Too Phat 2 is the well known siren used all over the series?... Correct me if i'm wrong... EDIT: TP Shortwave 22 is used in Sunrise from the Limited Edition Soundtrack of Silent Hill 4. And i'm also sure that i have listened to the sample TP...

Just found the Nightmarish Waltz beat lurking in AMG's Too Phat 2 . It is the file entitled 84 BPM 17 . Nice find Cyborg! I've been scouting the net for AMG samples recently, because i'm very certain that the 'Heaven's Night' beat originates from one of those libraries since the sound of the beat s...

About Tianium Thythms Vol.1, I had contacted Jason "Silver" Jones the creator of TR1 and TR2 and had asked where to buy Vol1 and he said the "TR1 is currently not in production." =( I had also asked if he was going to realese a vol 3 or something similar and he said "Someda...

I just managed to get the "AMG: Giga Refill" and it's filled with TONS of samples from different genres, dating from the 90's to 2002. I think it's very likely that Akira may have used something from this library. The only problem is that there are literally more than a thousand files that...

Sorry, thought my message didn't get through.

Though, i don't exactly understand why it's a problem "double posting" when it's almost been two months since the last message.

^ Here's the beat for Heaven's Night (sorta): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YRI8T8PN Awhile back, Badass Cyborg sent me a .zip file of ripped audio files. It contains a lot of individual samples used in various songs... but the tempo and pitch of all the files are way off. None of it is really useab...

Nice find!

I've been hunting for the pads (and pretty much everything else) that were used in Heaven's Night and Alone in the Town, but so far, i haven't found anything yet.

I have a feeling they might come from a collection by Digital Redux or Zero-G, so i'll try searching in those two first.

Just made some new discoveries: Zero-G: Ambient Vol. 2 1. "35 - Metal Drone Ambience" Plays in one of the hospital areas in Silent Hill 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxBCuFg1bdg&feature=related Zero-G: Altered States 2. "Ablutions" As far as i remember, it plays during th...
