Ólafur Arnalds Cells

"Cells constantly surprises me with little melodies that get created within the random intervals, often inspiring new melodies that I then take over to other instruments." 
– Ólafur Arnalds

Moving beyond the realm of a typical sample library, Cells is our latest collaboration with Ólafur Arnalds, one of Iceland’s foremost musicians, with a career spanning over a decade as a recording artist, live performer, and composer. Ólafur has received 3 GRAMMY nominations over his career, also winning a BAFTA for Best Original Music for the series "Broadchurch" and receiving an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music for "Defending Jacob." 

Cells is a collaborative tool that enables composers and producers to harness the power of a string orchestra and get the feeling of players responding as if they are in the same room as the composer. In addition there is a toolkit of vintage analogue synths with a variety of signal paths created and performed by Ólafur to embrace this same collaborative power.
