Deathlike Fusion MiDi

HIGH-TECH DEATH METAL.

Grooves and fills by one of the pioneers of technical death metal.

Death metal is more than blast beats and artillery-like bass drums in rampant tempos, it’s about subtle finesse, technicality and grace as well. Sean Reinert is a perfect example of just that. Already back in the early 1990s, his limitless playing introduced a sound that managed to forge trudging brutality with a nuance reminiscing that of a jazz or fusion drummer – a style where the drums were allowed to paint with all-new colors and much broader brushes than what was customary in death metal up until then.

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.

And this is where One Kit Wonder comes into play – each kit is captured to the same level of detail as our other libraries, BUT they’re also fully mixed and ready to go so you can dive straight into the writing process, with your ideas immediately sounding amazing. This particular kit, One Kit Wonder: Modern Fusion is inspired by contemporary progressive fusion artists, where the music demands a clean and glossy drum sound that nevertheless retains an organic timbre and wide dynamic range. You’ll find the snare and toms are punchy but musical, while the kick can deliver piercing attack or solid thud depending on the dynamic range you utilise. The cymbals are shimmery and hi-fi, but also have an underlying dark complexity and touch-responsiveness.

GHOST NOTE GALORE.

Drum grooves and fills for progressive rock and fusion – with an edge! In some genres, a repetitive and sturdy backbeat is all a song calls for. In others, quite the opposite is what’s required. Much like jazz, both progressive rock and fusion definitely belong to that latter category. It has the drummer in the driver’s seat, steering the entire band at breakneck speed through the tricky passages, hairpin bends and serpentine roads that often make up the songs. This collection of MIDI is a homage not only to the music but also the bands, the drummers and the dedication that goes into perfecting the craft of playing at the very apex of what’s humanly possible – and still make every note count and be there for a reason. “In this MIDI pack, I tried to cover more of an aggressive side of the fusion genre,” says drummer Luke Oswald. “I pulled ideas from drummers whose styles fit within the fusion label but who also have more of a progressive temperament to their playing. You’ll get all the fusion elements, such as linear- and rudimental-based playing, but you’ll find everything has more edge to it. I even introduced some double bass drum work, which is new compared to the earlier MIDI packs I’ve done.”
