For all you fans of the globally successful virtual band Gorillaz, who own an iPad, do we have a treat for you.
Korg have teamed up with the hugely successful Gorillaz to create a new dedicated beatbox for the iPad: The iELECTRIBE Gorillaz Edition only a limited number run of 10,000 units were released.
The iELECTRIBE is a virtual analog beatbox app for the iPad; the sound creation is intuitive, easy and fun — just like the vintage analog synthesizer. To build a groove quickly, simply choose a part and touch the 16-step sequencer. The intuitive beat-building style, aggressive sound and unique functionality of the iELECTRIBE made it a favourite of the Gorillaz for their latest album “The Fall”.
Whilst, keeping hold of the intuitive beat-making features of the iELECTRIBE, this special Gorillaz Edition is a new machine that has been customized to generate Gorillaz samples from their fourth album “The Fall”, and which allows the user to create music in a wide range of musical styles.
Information on this great iPad app comes to us by way of TechnoBleep, who go on to say that the features for the iELECTRIBE Gorillaz Edition include, a synthesizer engine including 128 new sounds created by Gorillaz, a unique design and 64 ready-to-use pre-programmed patterns by the sound team Gorillaz, Korg and Stephen Sedgwick. The iELECTRIBE Gorillaz Edition is a dedicated iPad app (iOS 4.2 or later) and therefore, is not compatible with iPhone and iPod touch and can be purchased from iTunes for £5.99.
