Drum grooves and fills inspired by funk of the past few decades.
The grooves and breaks recorded by the early 1970s funk forerunners are some of the most sampled and imitated in modern music history. In fact, the rhythm sections of that era laid the groundwork for what would become the basis of early hip-hop and other beat-heavy genres to follow. Frankly, funk is in our musical DNA.
While this collection of drum MIDI certainly nods to the past, it has its sights steadfastly set on the past few decades and especially the now. Think Jamiroquai, Vulfpeck and their contemporaries and you’ll get the idea. Expect a broad collection of sturdy beats, loose feels and intense rhythms that all pivot around one thing and one thing only – the heart of it all: groove.
This is the epitome of a MIDI pack for any writer of songs where the rhythm section plays the leading role. Be it that you’re writing a hip-hop, contemporary R&B, neo-soul or, of course, funk track – these grooves will have your back.
Works with EZdrummer, EZdrummer 2, EZdrummer 3, Superior Drummer 2 and Superior Drummer 3.
This collection of drum MIDI was created in tandem with the Modern Funk EZbass MIDI and Modern Funk EZkeys MIDI packs. As always, any MIDI pack is great on its own – but combined with its counterparts, they become a powerhouse of creative possibilities!
