Wish I Had a Heart started with this idea: take the worst keyboard I can find and make it human. I like the tension between hi-fi and lo-fi and blending them to make something strange and alive.
Here’s the process; low-bit PCM keyboard or drum machine —> layer with keys, clicks, creaks, rustles, hums, rattles, taps, slides, breaths, etc… —> impulse responses from the room and the original instruments themselves. Over 2,500 samples.
But something happened along the way…
Please note: FULL retail version of Kontakt 6.8.0 or later is required. NOT for Kontakt Player.

Sometimes I found myself muting the original samples and leaning into the layers, pairing them with synths or other samples.
It’s a cool way to add some interesting-ness to something that feels too inside-the-box.
