The idea behind Crisp & Crushed
More distortion, less glamour, more punch and much more space for vocals and melodies. Nowadays pop productions heavily borrow sounds from the 1970s and ’80s, while adding slightly distorted or crushed percussion and super punchy elements to give them a unique twist. Our sound design team wanted to capture this vibe and develop a production kit which further blurs the lines between pop, trap and house in an exciting new way. This has led to a stellar collection of drums and MIDI patterns, perfectly suited for next-generation producers.
About the creator
Crisp & Crushed was created by German producer, singer and songwriter Lars Henrik. A blend of cutting-edge electronic pop music and anthemic rock richness with a liking for creative sound design best describes his style as a solo artist. During his studies at the University of Music Detmold, Germany, Lars started working as a freelance producer while also playing numerous live gigs as the frontman of his band Karmeleon. He designed the Groove Agent expansion to be the instant inspiring spark for modern pop songs.
