Goth Rock EZKEYS MiDi

P2P | 06 June 2022 | 10.64MB

Goth, the offshoot of post-punk that paved the way for not only fashion, literature and film but also an entire sub-culture, truly defined an era. Spearheaded by the likes of The Cult, Type O Negative, The Sisters of Mercy and many more, goth and its aesthetics went from underground to mainstream and threw a cloak of horror-esque romanticism over the ‘80s and ‘90s. Since, it of course splintered off into numerous subsets and made its way into all kinds of styles during the decades to follow. Still to this day, goth is very much alive and thriving. This collection of EZkeys MIDI was inspired by not only the obvious poster bands of the heydays but also the trailblazing acts that got the ball rolling long before the word goth was even uttered. Expect the gloom of doom, the striking hooks of new wave and the unmistakable nods to industrial – all submerged in that signature melancholia that is the very essence of goth as we know it.

THE INSPIRATION STATION.

EZkeys MIDI inspired by modern electronic dance music. This collection of EZkeys MIDI features 20 individual “songs” inspired by a wealth of modern and hook-heavy electronic dance music where the keys, naturally, have a dominant role. Each song was broken down in three separate ‘Chords,’ ‘Melody’ and ‘Arpeggio’ sections with subfolders for a selection of ‘Breakdown/Buildup’ or ‘Drop’ parts in each song. This will allow you to drag, drop, mix, match, tweak, slice, dice and assign different sound sources to the parts to create your own sonic textures in your DAW. With these three layers of melodic MIDI magic, you’ll have an ever-flowing well of raw material to base your yet unwritten house, techno, modern pop and electronic hook-driven songs around. Expect all the obligatory stab-like chord sequences, a patchwork of electrifying hooks, melodies deluxe and an arpeggio ratio that is off the charts. Dive in!

EZkeys Cinematic Pads v1.3.0

Team R2R | 2021.10.22 | WiN: 1.04 GB | OSX: 1.04 GB

A CREATIVE COSMOS.

A new hybrid instrument for EZkeys, literally as diverse as the universe. For most of us, the anatomy of sound and its inner workings as a creative catalyst is a peculiar thing. The moment we hear something we can’t define – a new instrument – our minds inevitably open up to interpretations beyond the convention. Sound becomes visuals that in turn transform into tangible ideas. This library of sounds for EZkeys is a prime example of just that. EZkeys Cinematic Pads is based around several analogue and modular synths as well as a vintage grand piano and an electric bowed guitar. Together, these components form a never-before-heard hybrid instrument of reverberant, peculiar, fluttering, ominous, visceral, fluid and literally out-of-this-world audio landscapes. With this at hand, you’re an intrepid explorer at the helm of an audio vessel headed straight into the unknown – weightlessly drifting through an interstellar cosmos en route to uncharted sonic frontiers. If you let yourself go, you’ll enter a realm where the divide between reality and dream is nothing but a lucid gradient ready for you to pierce though.

Detroit Soul EZkeys MiDi

P2P | 28 October 2020 | 0.3 MB

THE HEART OF SOUL.

Inspired by the era that made Detroit one of the music capitals of the world. In the 1960s, no city churned out hit songs and now-iconic artists like Detroit did. In an almost assembly line-like fashion, the ‘Motown’ label produced immortal evergreens with the likes of The Supremes, The Jackson 5, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, Martha and the Vandellas, the Commodores and many, many more. Primarily honing in on the soul- and R&B-dominant era of the sixties, this collection of EZkeys MIDI has all the traits synonymous with the early ‘Motown Sound’ – the hooks, the tasteful chord progressions and the broad musical brushstrokes touching on anything from blues, funk, gospel and R&B to pop and rock. In other words, classic soul as we know it. Let your own cavalcade of hit songs begin!

DRAG. DROP. POP!

Piano and keyboard MIDI for modern, anthemic pop songs.

Although it sometimes may be amid layers of other instrumentation, tweaked or distorted almost beyond recognition, there is no denying that the piano still has a prominent role in contemporary pop. Listen to anthemic songs by the likes of Ariana Grande, Kygo, Coldplay or P!nk and you can easily pick it out as the dominant melodic vehicle. And given the flexibility and endless sonic application of MIDI, switch the piano for another instrument and the feel changes in an instant. This is where the Modern Pop EZkeys MIDI pack comes in. It was designed to give you a broad baseline of chord progressions and melodic structures to spark your next batch of keys-driven, contemporary modern pop songs. And, again, don’t feel constrained to using the MIDI for only piano. Modern pop is a borderless and ever-changing sonic landscape where literally no rules apply. Start writing!

EZkeys Hybrid Harp v1.0.1

Team R2R | August 21 2020 | WiN: 629 MB | OSX: 591 MB

Even though the laws of thermodynamics long ago ruled out the possibility of a perpetual motion machine, EZkeys Hybrid Harp comes very close. The laws of physics may still apply, but fact remains that this peculiar ‘machine’ has an inherent mojo that seems to make sure you’re never short of ideas. It literally runs and feeds off of you and your own imagination. EZkeys Hybrid Harp presents five individual instruments, all layered, textured and saturated in various capacities to form unique and never-before-heard hybrids of sounds. The undisputed star of the group is an iconic Style 23 harp. In addition to this, a traditional Swedish nyckelharpa (or “keyed fiddle”), two harmoniums, a bowed glockenspiel and a set of ocarinas were sampled. Combined, this seemingly odd group of instruments – that in logical terms have no earthly business sharing the same sonic space – culminate in what must be described as a vastly puzzling audio universe of plucking, percussive, soaring, airy, beautiful and ever-so-slightly dissonant sounds.
