summary
Overall, Forest Kingdom offers a veritable compendium of fantasy elements, and should be an essential purchase for any musician working with film, TV or game soundtracks. I was expecting at least some overlap with Epic World, but FK manages to cover lots of new ground, as well as complementing its predecessor beautifully. Martin Walker
So what’s the bottom line?
This is the first product I’ve ever used created by Eduardo Torilonte…but I’m definitely digging what I hear. I just feel he has a style in his library that is very different from what I usually come across. It has a very earthy, natural vibe to it.
I give this library 4.5 out of 5 subs, it’s really unique and diverse with great sounding instruments that are fun to play
I really suggest you go over to trysound and play it for yourself! http://www.try-sound.com/index2.asp?plg=bs_fk&slng=en
If you are like me and you love to use different libraries and instruments that bring a totally new texture to your toolbox, this is worth consideration.

★★★★★★★★★★
MTM Verdict
A great library for anyone into New Age music production, nature documentaries and games scoring.
Outstanding ethnic flutes, imaginative pads and many sonic surprises. Highly recommended.
Crescendo
Even if you are not into new age sort of music, this library as a whole is a winner. Ethereal voice, along with the Flute section will blow up your production to a totally new level, and as a bonus, you get your ultimate pad selection along with some magnificent percussion and few other useful, additional atmospheric moments. But, it is definitely not a library aimed only at cinema, advertising or video game composers. If you are a contemporary musician and producer, no matter which genre, take some biscuits, find this product on Bestservice site and watch the included video clips. You will get the point, very soon.Definitely not just a tree-hugger
collection!
We don´t have any award system at Wusik Sound Magazine but this product absolutely deserves an enormous bucketful of Börek for Bestservice and one huge first class golden pizza with free balcony view for Eduardo Tarilonte who baked this library.

Conclusion
