After suggesting that a young indie band make their sound "darker" and "tougher," award-winning East West producer Doug Rogers realized there wasn't anything in the vast East West virtual instrument offering that did just that. So, Doug got together with acclaimed indie producer David Fridmann (The Flaming Lips, Sparklehorse, OK Go, Weezer, MGMT, and more). Together, the two brainstormed their vision of the ultimate "dark" virtual instrument that was loaded with a little bit of everything, but all dark - drums, percussion, basses, keyboards, strings, FX, guitars, and more. Meet their creation: The Dark Side.

Call up The Dark Side, and you've got 40GB of dark and eerie instruments, all really easily organized so you can find what you want. You'll find the instruments you know and love, but morphed to their spookiest selves. Many instruments, in fact, were processed through five or six effects units to really give them serious flavor. If you're after the ultimate in mangled instruments, in the flavor of Radiohead, Muse, Nine Inch Nails, etc... The Dark Side is for you.
