Hey guys,

Released yesterday is my first royalty free MIDI pack, on Dance Midi Samples. Here's the write up...

"Needing no introduction Hard Dance superstar Technikal unveils his first ever royalty free hard trance MIDI file pack - another amazing DMS exclusive! This versatile collection of 30 awesome riffs will get your productions rockin' from the word go! 

Our MIDI files provide the ultimate in flexibility. Simply drag and drop or import your chosen file into your sequencer software.

There's an mp3 sample of some of the MIDI riffs on the following link. The pack costs £29.99 so works out as a pound per riff.

I don't set the prices myself but to be fair there are 30 totally royalty free riffs there which could be really useful for a producer that isn't so musical, and these types of packages seem to be selling quite a few at the moment. Of course stuff'll get pirated but that's the same with everything.

Thing is tho, some sample DVD's cost £50-80 and most of the Vengeance sound banks cost £30+ (for a 2kb file for fucks sake). £30 is fook all really in the greater scheme of things. thumbsup

sorry dude, appreciate what you have done, but i dont know how thats justifiable. you should have packaged the leads with it. some of them are just normal midi's tweeked. like the obvious bedrock one.

Well as I said I didn't set the price - DMS asked me to put a MIDI pack together as they arehaving features ran in Computer Music and Future Music magazines and they wanted a hard trance pack. Whether it's good value or not isn't why I posted it up, I posted it as it's a hard dance production forum and I thought they might be useful to somebody somewhere. All of the MIDI packs on DMS are £29.99, not just mine.

Some people aren't totally confident writing riffs so if they have a belter of a well produced hard trance track and need a strong riff then I'm sure the £30.00 would be made back in an instant.

I think there is confusion here. looking People are upset about paying £30 for a MIDI pack and taking it out on Alf. Not agreeing with the industry's path and not agreeing with the artist are two completely seperate paths.

In this day and age it's value over price, especially with the massive amount of people producing. To many of those people these packs will be more helpful than £60 of Vengence sample CDs. For a musician interested in composing hard trancers or whatever, these packs can prove to be valuable tools. Many people appreciate and confide their confidence into products with an artists stamp on it and Technical is becoming a brand in itself, especially in terms of Hard Trance.

I am 100% that the riffs are all top drawer stuff and if I had this 5 years ago I would never have turned down the chance to work with an established producer's riffs thumbsup

Very good point,tho riffs dont cost a lot to make the thought that goes into them is invaluable and not an easy thing to do or everyone would have blinding riffs,the more top quality producers that invest there time in projects like this the more choice were all goin to have when making our own productions,rather than having to rely on vengence and the very limited sample packs that are usefull for making harder edged styles.How many people would be on the d/l now if these riffs were free? because of the undoubted quality of the material which could be very usefull for breaking down and using them as foundations for great tracks,also learning from the structure of how the guys at the top of there game make there stuff..thumbsup

Good job Alf mate.thumbsup

Lads, if you break it down it's only a pound per riff for fuck sake. Go halfs or even thirds with some mates, but if you don't want them don't get into Alf, he's doing the scene a favour

Also taken from the site:

This pack also contains a bonus pack of 10 V-Station lead synth patches from the producer's own banks.

vip have been doing them for about 4 years, not my thing really but i guess they are ok if you just need something to kick start an idea. imo though i would say that there are a lot of guys out there that will just drag and drop the midi files with out editing them
