Processed and recorded using analogue equipment and effects, many of the instruments in this pack have been given an otherworldly sonic character through a simple yet classic production technique: they’ve been reversed. Analog synths, retro guitars and classic South Asian instruments sit alongside jukebox-style vocal snippets, hollow-bodied bass lines and warped old records played backwards – a soundset reminiscent of 60s and 70s experimentation.

The kit includes over 400 loops and samples of these instruments, a colourful mosaic of jagged textures, eccentric soundscapes and haunting atmospheres. It’s evocative material for soundtrack composers, or a great starting point for those looking towards inventive composition or sound design.

Also included are nine construction kits: pre-prepared Live Sets full of clips and macro-mapped devices, ready to be triggered and tweaked – ideal for hands on use with a MIDI controller and even better with Push. Playing around with the kits of contrasting sounds gives you an idea of the creative combinations possible, and provides a great starting point for your own musical trip.

Add to these the vintage kit Drum Rack – plus the five sets of effects racks for mixing, tweaking and twisting your sounds – and you have everything you need to kick-start quirky compositions or add an unconventionally vintage touch to your tracks.
