Discover Scandi string textures with Liikkuva

Produce subtle, undulating string textures with LIIKKUVA. Based on the sound of modern “Scandic” or “Nordic” soundtracks such as The Killing, Wallander and Bordertown LIIKKUVA offers a range of high & low string articulations which are perfect for crafting scores that require a sense of movement and evolution. Liikkuva (prounounced “Lee Koo Vah”) is a string textures sample library based on the sound of modern “Scandi” or “Nordic” soundtracks such as The Killing, Wallander and Bordertown. It contains a range of articulations split into “High Strings” and “Low Strings” that all have a sense of movement and evolution. These string textures reflect the landscape of Scandinavian countries – cold, bleak and empty yet are perfect for use in both cold, dreary underscore as well as more warm and shimmering tracks. Discover the allure of Liikkuva – a meticulously crafted string textures library capturing the essence of Scandinavian soundtracks. Recorded by a small string orchestra in a beautiful Croatian church, every note resonates with raw, organic depth, reflecting the serene yet stark landscapes of the Nordic region.

Organic, Raw and Silky Strings with No Violas for the Scandi Sound
To create the “Scandi” sound, we recorded a small string orchestra with no violas to scoop out the mid-range and give them their silky sound with a boomy bottom and airy top. The strings are soft and delicate with a silky airiness and distinctly raw, icy tone to them. They have a definite up close sound allowing many intricate details to shine through. From nose diving “Sirens” to more minimalist, melancholic textures like “Sul Tasto“, we’ve recorded a range of textured string techniques in both high and low strings to give you a nuanced, moving sound full of detail and ambience. This library lends itself perfectly to modern drama that requires an intimate and organic sound full of movement and life. It can bring you to both warm, shimmering lakes as well as dark, cold, sharp glaciers.
