A key cornerstone of Milap’s work, Instruments INDIA is a rich and varied musical archive that captures the inspirational sounds and histories of instruments from the entire Indian sub-continent; including how they are played and exploring the types of settings they are usually heard in. 

From this unique archive, Milap, the Instruments India team and The Open University have created a brand new Sample Pack showcasing the full spectrum of Indian sounds available, to be released later this month.

The release will coincide with a virtual panel discussion on 31st March 2-4pm (UK time). ‘Selling Cultural Sounds: Indian Music in the Sample Pack Industry’ will feature a round table discussion from industry experts, musicians, producers and academics.

The panel event is open for anyone to attend – whether you’re a student, musician, academic or a music lover and keen to learn more about the fascinating sample pack industry, we’d love for you to join the discussion!
