Simon Stockhausen is acknowledged for his improvisational collaborations, compositions for ensembles, as well as owing to his work with European theater companies and orchestras.

Stockhausen said: “This library is a diverse collection of drum and achromatic/chromatic percussion sounds, tempo-synced loops, electronic soundscapes and processed field recordings, deeply exploring a wide range of sonic colors, rhythmic textures and time signatures.”

“The exotic samples combined with the extraordinary sound design make Colliding Worlds a great source of inspiration equally suited for sound designers, composers and music producers,” commented Senior Marketing Manager Matthias Quellmann.
