BEATS TO MOVE YOUR FEET TO.

A comprehensive collection of funk-infused drum grooves inspired by classic and modern dance music. When late 1960s funk songs started making their way into the night clubs of Manhattan in the early seventies, disco was more than a fact – it quickly became a global phenomenon and very much a lifestyle. Looking back, it seems like all over the world, an entire generation was dancing its way through the first half of that decade to a four-on-the-floor with an accented hi-hat. While this collection takes on the timeless rhythms that laid the foundation to disco as we know it, it also draws inspiration from how the genre evolved over the decades and where modern dance music finally is today. Expect a wide palette of funk-infused beats that can easily be adapted to any vintage as well as modern sounding context. Because fact is, disco is just as alive and well today as it was forty years ago. Just listen to Justin Timberlake, Daft Punk and Madonna and you’ll hear it.

GROOVE-APPROVED.

Drum grooves, fills, breaks and pick-ups inspired by the iconic drummers of the big band era. The big band and swing era of the early 20th century wasn’t only significant because it introduced jazz music on a major scale to the general public, but for several other reasons as well. First, it very much defined what we still refer to as a ‘drum kit.’ Before the jazz age, drum sets were comprised of pretty random pieces of percussion. The big band format actually in many ways standardized the kick/snare/hi-hat/tom-tom format. Second, likely no other genre has produced more timeless drum icons. Still today, we marvel at the technicality, finesse and almost weightless facility of “Papa” Jo Jones, Gene Krupa, Chick Webb, Buddy Rich and many more. The ripples of their propulsive swing have yet to ebb away – in some cases a century later. Third, it instituted the drummer as a soloist, cemented the instrument as the pivot point of the rhythm section and attributed a showmanship, a playfulness and an element of storytelling to the art of playing drums that had yet to be seen. All in all, this era was a turning point for drums on a whole and the very art of playing them in front of an audience.

THE SOLUTION FOR YOUR FUSION TUNES.

For songs where groove, technicality and that “session drummer” finesse is front and center. Fusion. “The process or result of joining two or more things together to form a single entity”. The general dictionary definition of the word applies perfectly to the music genre as well – it’s a mix of disparate elements from several genres that, put together, make perfect sense. In a seamless merge, it combines the complexity of jazz, the groove of funk and the raw power of rock, particularly when it comes to the drums. In the Fusion Grooves MIDI pack, drummer Luke Oswald not only draws inspiration from genre forerunners like Vinnie Colaiuta, Dave Weckl, Will Kennedy and Steve Gadd, he also adapts ideas from contemporary players like Lil’ John Roberts and Mark Guiliana, while still throwing a big portion of his own personal style into the mix.

Expect a variety of fundamental and mellow grooves for ballads, mid- and uptempo songs for use in any pop, acoustic rock or laid back music fitting the broad definition of what “singer-songwriter” music is today. Think Albert Hammond, James Taylor, Marc Cohn, Boz Scaggs, Elton John, John Mayer and Ricky Lee Jones and you’ll get a perfect sonic image of what these grooves sound like.
