iZotope, Inc. has collaborated with English electronic band Underworld for the latest release of their popular iDrum app for Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch. This new app features tracks adapted from all of Underworld albums in celebration of the release of the band’s full catalog on iTunes and in conjunction with a concert available to stream on the iPhone and iPod touch.

“iDrum Underworld Edition has been carefully designed as a completely new medium of musical expression where users can interact with Underworld’s music,” explains Mark Ethier, CEO of iZotope, “We’re proud to be part of this successful artistic collaboration between iZotope, Underworld, tomato and GForce Software.”

Building on the core iZotope interface of iDrum, the graphical user interface skin was specially commissioned from John Warwicker, co-founder of tomato and Underworld Creative Director. Tracks from the Underworld catalog were adapted by sound designer Dave Spiers, co-founder of GForce Software, under the direction of the band’s own Rick Smith. GForce is well-known for their meticulous vintage synthesizer modeling in addition to providing technical expertise to a number of bands.

The app includes 12 tracks, featuring “Born Slippy”, “Two Months Off” and “Cowgirl”. In addition to allowing users to remix and re-sequence tracks from more than 20 years of Underworld’s music, the app also includes an original track created exclusively for the app.
