A GOSPEL JOURNEY.

A journey in gospel drums – from the ’40s through to today. Up until today and ever since the early days, when makeshift kits, foot stomps and handclaps served as rhythm sections in churches, the beat has been central in every syllable, bar and phrase of worship music. Simply put: rhythm is instilled in each fiber of gospel as we know it. The Gospel EZX celebrates just that: the power of rhythm and the legacy of a genre whose DNA over the course of history has seeped through to almost any facet of music imaginable. With branches arching into anything from R&B and soul to rock, hip-hop and fusion, gospel is the literal definition of width. With its four fundamentally different sets of tonal characteristics, this EZX covers the entire scope and paints an impressive sonic image – from the open-sounding tones of the early 1940s and the dry, muffled and tight ones of the 1960s to the punchy, distinct and crystal clear sound of today.

In contemporary pop, hip-hop, dance and other beat-driven music, nothing is more essential than just that – the beat. With upwards of 40 different “songs” and with each one featuring five variations as well as breaks and fills, this collection of drum MIDI is nothing less than a veritable panoply of components for your general songwriting needs. The Electronic Beats MIDI pack was created with some of our less acoustic-sounding products, such as the Electronic Edge EZX, Dream Pop EZX and Hip-Hop EZX, in mind. Although it utilizes many of the special articulations specifically found in some of these titles, with some minor tweaking it works with any EZX or SDX – which of course is the beauty of MIDI. This collection isn’t just ideal for quickly calling up a ready, great-sounding beat – combined with the onboard MIDI features of EZdrummer 2 and Superior Drummer 3, it’s the perfect canvas for limitless creativity. Mix, match, cut, loop, create – no rules apply!

WELCOME TO SOUL TOWN.

Drum grooves and fills inspired by the iconic ‘Motown’ era. Even though the classic ‘Motown Sound’ had luscious horn and string arrangements or call-and-response vocals as some of its most identifying traits, make no mistake – the power of the steady backbeats that the likes of William “Benny” Benjamin, Richard “Pistol” Allen and Uriel Jones laid down are forever etched in history. “I have always felt that there is something profoundly magical about the early days of this era. It’s almost as if the drummers seamlessly moved between straight and swung notes like it was the most natural thing in the world. Their grooves were playful, light, fun and uplifting at the same time as they had an undeniable musical depth. When it comes to groove and what rhythm truly adds to a song, this is a pivotal chapter in music history,” says drummer Norman Garschke. This is what this collection of drum MIDI seeks to capture – the magic, feel and very heartbeat of the early ‘Motown Sound’ – but at the same time offer a sixty-years-later spin on it. “The ‘Motown’ philosophy was never abut showing off – it was about playing just the right thing at the right time. That’s what I’ve been focusing on: a broad array of basic grooves that you can use as foundations for your songs but then embellish and accentuate using the vast array of fills to create your own twists with,” says Norman.

GROOVES YOU NEED TO MAKE ROOM FOR.

Drum grooves and fills inspired by the greats of classic rock. In the 1970s, acts like Whitesnake, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin not only paved way for a new breed of loud, beat-driven rock – they also revitalized the drum hero of the jazz-age and cemented the role of the drums as one of the pivot points around which they based their sound. Still to this day, the pummeling grooves of John Bonham, Ian Paice, Keith Moon and Bill Ward continue to inspire writers and underline the fact that in classic rock, the drums are – and should be – loud, obnoxious and play as much of a leading part as anything else in a song. With that as a foundation, we headed back to the genre’s heydays to capture some of its unmistakable traits. Expect the big, bold mid-tempos, the doom-ridden slow songs, the hammering up-tempos – and, of course, the larger-than-life and rightfully abundant spur of fills. These are grooves you need to make room for. Start writing.
