my ‘About’ Section is Really all About you
The digital revolution has revolutionised just about everything in our lives, including our musical toolbox. Everything can be polished to perfection. Almost all instruments you know are available to you in seconds, without leaving the comfort of your DAW.
THE STORY
Having access to this vast array of digital technologies is great, but as a music maker, I also find that something is missing. When music gets all cleaned up, there's nothing to get stuck on, nothing to awaken your senses.
‘Flawless’ music just has little emotional reach.
Hence the birth of Felt Instruments – a one-man sampling studio on a mission to help more musicians and composers develop their own unique sound. Here you'll find unexpected articulations and sounds from rare instruments that time forgot, each one performed humanly and captured with vintage analogue kit to give all the beautiful imperfections a chance to bleed through. Think of this as the ultimate anti-digital treatment for your music.
If you want to play around with instruments that have story and character, or you feel hungry for a sound that just feels different, these plugins are for you. I hope you'll embrace all the magical irregularities and unexpected noises – because, in my view, those are precisely the ones that stir emotions and make people feel.
I’m Tomek. I’m so happy you’re here. Just reach out if you need me.
