Puremagnetik Is Now Also An Experimental Music Label and Has Two Free Plugins For You!

We’ve recently featured Puremagnetik​’s latest plugin, mentioning the clear musician-driven spirit that permeates the NY-based company. It doesn’t come as a surprise that the brand has just launched an experimental music label with 2 releases and some free plugins for music producers!

Both releases are available digitally and on limited edition cassettes on Bandcamp.

PM01 – Larum, ​Into a Bright Land
Designed and composed in detail by PM founder and lead developer Micah Frank, under the moniker ​Larum​, ​Into a Bright Land i​nstantly envelopes the listener in a warm narrative of lush tape loops and textures that weave a tapestry of field recordings spanning many of California’s natural areas. The production process was further augmented using a variety of analog synthesizers, tape machines and manipulated using custom code in Csound.
Puremagnetik also developed a texture generator tool​, Expanse,​ now available as a free plugin in AU and VST formats. Expanse​ is a noise generator that can be spectrally blurred, pitched, and filtered. It is available for download at: http://puremagnetik.com/expanse

PM02 – BlankFor.ms, ​Works For Tape And Piano
Works For Tape And Piano i​mmerses the audience in a sonic landscape where sustained piano tones bend and flutter as light travels through a prism. The centerpiece of this recordings creation is a tape machine, which Tyler Gilmore aka BlankFor.ms uses to capture his world and warp it.
BlankFor.ms also often releases music on his​ ​Instagram page where he has grown an impressive and dedicated fan base.

Free Plugins
To complement the release Puremagnetik created two free plugins, inspired by the above albums themselves .​

Driftmaker is a delay disintegration device​ that parses incoming audio, recalls certain parts and adds analog deterioration to the signal.

It is a free plugin in Audio Units and VST formats, available for download at: ​http://puremagnetik.com/driftmaker
