Mntra Pripyat

Irradiated Synth Textures

Pripyat is MNTRA's first foray into the world of synthetic textures, funneled through their idiosyncratic approach to sampling and sound design.

With a focus on the cold and industrial character of some of MNTRA's favorite synth-heavy scores, they derived the main source material from electromagnetic interference recorded at an electrical substation and unstable vintage analog synths processed by custom-made guitar pedals and eurorack modular.

These radioactive soundscapes are sure to add a new dimension to your palette, inspiring you and breathing new life into your music.

The Story of Pripyat

At the core of Pripyat is MNTRA's desire to present a collection of electronic textures with our unique aesthetic and take full advantage of our cutting-edge sound design engine MNDALA 2.

The library features brutal electromagnetic interference, normally inaudible to the human ear, both in its pure form and re-amped through various acoustic resonators, warbling vintage analog synthesizers processed through various guitar pedals and Eurorack modular effects, and clamorous ultrasonic recordings of dry ice on a rare Marimbaphone and a Bombo drum, as well as additional percussion sounds.

Within the proprietary MNDALA 2 engine, the source material is vastly expanded, allowing you to create deeply textured soundscapes, as well as go-to synth basses, pads, leads, and FX.

The MNTRA team of experienced sound designers has created a collection of 60 presets to get you started right out of the box, so whether you're looking for quick inspiration or a complex sound design environment, there’s something for you.

To intuitively control the complex array of back-end parameters in real-time we created an interactive animated scene inspired by retro soviet poster art, allowing you to intuitively 'play' Pripyat like a physical instrument.
