Toontrack GOSPEL ORGAN EzKeys Midi screenshot
Midi | MARCH 2024 | 4.0 MB
When the Hammond* was introduced to churches as an affordable option to the classic pipe organ, little did the founding company know of the fact that it would come to fundamentally transform gospel music to the core. Needless to say, today the inimitable sound and unique expression of this iconic instrument is synonymous with gospel, whether it be for service, traditional music or the many modern and genre-transcending iterations that are topping the charts today.

Toontrack TROPICAL HOUSE EzKeys Midi screenshot
Midi | MARCH 2024 | 4.0 MB
With accessible vocal and keyboard hooks front and center, the tropical house genre has managed to struck a chord that’s cut through to the very core of the mainstream – way beyond the inner circle of the EDM scene. Artists like The Chainsmokers, Kygo, Diplo, Becky Hill and numerous others have been tearing up global charts, become rotation staples in all thinkable medias and been topping major festival rosters around the globe for years now.

Toontrack RETRO SOUL EzKeys Midi screenshot
Midi | March 2024 | 4.5 MB
When artists like Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding and many more hit the scene some 70 years ago with their new, vocal-driven collage of gospel, jazz and blues, they made an indelible mark on music history. Since then, classic soul has produced more iconic artists and timeless hits than arguably any other genre to this day.

Toontrack MODERN SOUL EzKeys Midi screenshot
Midi | March 2024 | 4.5 MB
Fusing classic soul with funk, jazz, fusion, hip-hop, pop and electronic, soul of today is a patchwork of styles where no rules apply other than those that have been given since day one: great melodic and rhythmic foundations. However, seeing as the word “modern” implies a fleeing snapshot of the exact moment of now, this collection of EZkeys MIDI rather sets out to capture the evolution of post-classic soul from the late 1990s through to today. Expect the lush and velvety ballads reminiscent of the early pre-millennium neo-soul era all the way through the funky, beat-driven and electronic amalgams that followed.

Toontrack Synthwave EzKeys Midi screenshot
Midi | March 2024 | 4.5 MB
Let’s all agree: the soundtrack to the ’80s had a shrill synth hook, a repetitive eighth-note bass and a machine-like beat in it. But not only that, synth completely overthrew culture on a whole. With its extraordinary aesthetics, it permeated arts, films and fashion and, frankly, made an entire generation unanimously march to its static beat. Today, unlike many other styles that just fizzled out, it’s slung back and gone full circle.

Toontrack Eighties Ballads EZbass MIDI WIN/OSX-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 10 March 2024 | 13 MB
Shimmering in blinding neon pastels, the ’80s was an era when technology forced its way to the forefront and got its first permanent foothold in mainstream music culture. It was a time when acoustic and electronic merged to form all-together new sounds, musical expressions and even genres. In all of this, the bass of course played a tremendous part – not least in the shape of the surging use of the synth filling its traditional role.

Democracy of Sound: Music Piracy and the Remaking of American Copyright in the 20th Century screenshot
English | Publisher: Oxford University Press, 2013 | 272 Pages | epub, mobi, pdf (conv.) | 7 MB
Democracy of Sound is the first book to examine music piracy in the United States from the dawn of sound recording to the rise of Napster and online file-sharing. It asks why Americans stopped thinking of copyright as a monopoly-a kind of necessary evil-and came to see intellectual property as sacrosanct and necessary for the prosperity of an "information economy." Recordings only became eligible for federal copyright in 1972, following years of struggle between pirates, musicians, songwriters, broadcasters, and record companies over the right to own sound.

Piano By MS screenshot
This is my first sampled instrument from start to finish. I've always wanted to have a go at sampling a piano and have found out how hard it is. I haven't got a piano to start with so had to find one to sample, then to make a clean recording was next to impossible with all the background noise. This is the end result, more an experiment than a instrument. I've found it good for fast moving music but if you listen to the demo straight from midi it did good with a slow movement.

Produced in collaboration with Victoria Shersick and David Sherlock (Freshly Squeezed Samples), each construction kit is either 8 or 16 bars in length and all kits contain interesting chord variations and ‘tweaks’ on the last 8-16 bars - something we felt allot of other MIDI packs lacked in the past. Additionally, multiply elements are included per kit such as pads, chord leads, arpeggios, plucks, basses, sub melodies and much more. Fundamentally, the construction kits are complete tracks (or break down melodies) with all the core elements being included to inspire your own productions.
