SmartSound Releases "Cool" Addition to Music Library
August 07, 2003
Northridge, CA - SmartSound Software, Inc. is releasing its new Edge Volume 6: Chill-Out/Cool Moods/Lounge.
This collection of music - including acid jazz, downtempo, bossa nova and lounge - captures the hip yet cool sound of today's most popular TV commercials, the manufacturer describes.
The Edge Series offers SmartSound users access to cutting-edge music not available from any other source. It is the latest of 56 self-published, royalty-free music and sound libraries available for exclusive use with SmartSound's Sonicfire Pro and other SmartSound soundtrack creation software products.
Edge Volume 6 features music appropriate for scoring any footage that needs a fun yet hip sound. Professionals will find these tracks ideal for reaching younger audiences without alienating other audience segments. The 12 tracks on the CD offer a range of musical styles, letting users invoke feelings from retro kitsch to cool relaxation.
Edge Volume 6 is perfect for people who are frustrated with the quality of music found in most stock libraries. Like all SmartSound music libraries, the fully-produced songs feature a level of smoothness and polish that loop-based music libraries just can't match.
Edge Volume 6: Chill-Out/Lounge was composed, performed and produced by Chris O'Brien and Mark Hiskey. As a drummer and composer, O'Brien has scored for various TV shows including "Entertainment Tonight," "Hard Copy" and MTV's "Spyder Games" among others. He has worked as a programmer for the tours of several well-known artists such as Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Amy Grant, and Michael W. Smith. Hiskey's composition and sound design work has been heard repeatedly on major broadcast and cable TV/radio networks worldwide including beds and logos for NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, A&E, HBO, Showtime and others.
