Loud, rowdy and full of character, classic organs haven’t just permeated the soul of rock – they have virtually defined it. Balancing rhythm, harmony and melody – sometimes all at once – they’re the kind of instruments that can take the backseat or the limelight and still make a splash, purely by how they cut through.

In this organ MIDI pack for EZkeys, we explore the vast archive of organ-fueled garage rock songs dating back to the heyday of the 1960s. On our way, we touch on anything from the basic and rhythmic to the all-out riff-driven – all to give you a complete palette of playing variations you need to take your next idea from start to finish.

If you’ve found yourself humming along to a classic rock hook, chances are that an organ fueled it. Looking for some new inspiration? No worries – the groove is in the garage.
