🎹 PAIN PIANO: PREPARED PIANO STABS & RHYTHMS 🎹

Unleash the Dark, Unearthly Sounds of a Transformed Piano

Dive into the eerie, experimental world of Pain Piano—a Kontakt library designed for cinematic horror, suspense, and avant-garde sound design 🎥🔮. This one-of-a-kind prepared piano collection pushes the boundaries of traditional piano tones, delivering haunting stabs, unsettling rhythms, and spine-chilling textures that will elevate your compositions.

🔮 A Symphony of the Macabre

We’ve meticulously recorded rare and vintage pianos, including:
✔ Mornington & Weston Pianos
✔ A 19th-century Collard Piano �
✔ An Old Saloon Piano 🎪

Each instrument was prepared with unconventional objects—snare tails, screws, metal sticks, aluminum sheets, and cardboard panels—to create otherworldly, horror-inspired SFX. The result? A nightmarish palette of atonal slams, detuned notes, bowed strings, and obsessive rhythms that will haunt your listeners.
