These beats run deep. If thatβs a quality youβre looking to elicit in your music
Virtual Drummer is here to help. And we mean deep as in soulful
deep as in complex and intricate. Deepness as a measure of emotions. DEEP is UJAMβs most spirited drummer
standing on the shoulders of traditional genres like Soul and Funk
with its gaze firmly set on contemporary styles and timeless future classics.
Sweet Soul music
Soul and funk dominated the music biz during the 1960s and 1970s. And we think for a good reason! These styles were predominantly played by African-American musicians like Stevie Wonder
James Brown
and Marvin Gaye. Soul music took the stages
record players and musical hearts of the world by storm
driven by iconic rhythm sections like the Funk Brothers and Booker T. & The M.G.βs.
From Retro to Metro
Soul music emphasizes lyrics
vocal melodies
and vocal harmonies. You could see the roots as gospel music without the religious factor. Typical songs emphasize melody and vocals. Soul music is much less complex than funk music and was more commercially successful. This means soul drumming features more basic patterns with fewer embellishments.
Edgy and energetic
DEEP covers not only soulful and groovy genres but feels also right at home with pop
rock and alternative vibes. Make your production dazzling
with real-world drumming
performances
that breathe artistic life into your track.
Incredible detail
DEEP comes with up to 60 velocity layers per instrument. Hyper realism by UJAMβs dynamic round-robin algorithm makes your drums sound like the real thing. All sounds were recorded with a selection of both vintage and modern direct microphones. You get absolute mix freedom thanks to stereo pairs of overhead and room mics.
