Test Press has recently released a sound pack for the Phase Plant software synthesizer instrument by Kilohearts.
Created by an iconic producer, Phase Plant Speed Garage flawlessly captures the essence of Speed Garage, a genre of electronic dance music associated with UK Garage and regarded as one of its subgenres.
The collection includes 100 masterfully created presets inspired by some of the most significant Speed Garage artists, including 187 Lockdown, Double 99, Armand Van Helden, Topcat, Agent X, and Serious Danger. The patches use many of Phase Plant’s modulation parameters and are intuitive and fun.
Speed garage features sped-up four-to-the-floor rhythms combined with breakbeats—the snares placed on the downbeats. Speed Garage tunes have warped Jungle and Reggae-influenced bass noises. Speed Garage tunes sometimes feature time-stretched vocals. As Jungle heavily influences it, the genre uses jungle and dub sound effects, such as gunshots and sirens.
