Description
Ten pensive, brooding, and melodic compositions inspired by 1970s and 1980s fusion and progressive rock. Strings and flute join keys, guitar, and bass in layered arrangements with an almost orchestral feel.
Omega Music Library's 5th volume is possibly their most pensive, brooding, and melodic volume yet. Characterized by thick, fully analogue arrangements often backed by a string section, volume 5 is a must-have for anyone seeking the 70s & 80s synth, fusion, or prog-rock sound. Frequent collaborators Bobby Moses (strings) and Seb Zillner (flute) rejoin Marcus (keys/synths) & Gerson (guitar/bass) creating an almost orchestral fusion ensemble on volume 5.
Analogue modules and vintage synthesizers used in this pack include the Korg Trident, Moog Matriarch, Fender Rhodes Mark I (1974), Roland RE-201 (Space Echo), and are joined by the classic and extremely rare Roland VP-330 (Vocoder Plus) made popular by Japanese fusion bands like YMO. Collectively, Omega Music Library has worked with artists including Royce Da 5'9", Logic, Domo Genesis, Questlove, Del the Funkee Homosapien, Kamasi Washington, Planet Asia, Termanology, Blu and even Michael Buble.
