Boulder Sounds have just released a lovely 3 octave hand bell library – check it out here – there are some beautiful demo MP3s there but if there is one piece of music that has inspired me to part with the cash to own this library it comes from the soundtrack to Mathew Barneys film Drawing Restraint composed by his partner Bjork, the piece called Cetacea

Also check out Boulders free sound libraries as there are some interesting freebies for Kontakt, EXS24, Structure etc…
SonicCouture also just released a Bowed Gamelan library too… I hope they next do a Javanese Gamelan library, the softer tonality is hugely contrasting with the Balinese….
Ah such beautiful sounds!
