Midiwood has announced the release of a new music production toolkit that combines authentic African instruments with a cutting-edge, vibrant Kontakt engine. Black Lotus delivers genre-crossing, unimagined sounds that push the boundaries of modern music.

The library contains the sounds of the dundun, frame drum, sticks, reed shaker, bass marimba, reed pipe, bow, and bamboo pipe.

From urban pop to cinematic thunderous percussion soundscapes, this toolkit is designed for producers and composers seeking innovative ways to craft their music. Perfect for those who embrace unconventional methods, it provides the versatility needed for today’s dynamic music production.

We took our inspiration from the groundbreaking work of Cristobal Tapia de Veer – White Lotus. A simple idea really of taking authentic traditional sounds and instruments and putting them through some production tricks to make something unheard and truly unique.

Black Lotus for the full version of Kontakt 7.10.6 or higher is on sale for the introduction price of $99 USD until October 31st, 2024 (regular $149 USD).
