Behind every breakthrough lies inspiration. Evoke didn’t emerge in a vacuum. It was inspired by the boundary-pushing work of artists who reimagined what the human voice could be.
Our vision was to create a hypermodern instrument that gives producers expressive, immediate control over their sound. Allowing artists to transform their voices into new forms while preserving the emotion that makes them human.
In our latest blog, we’re sharing three playlists that trace the creative lineage behind Evoke. From experimental vocal processing to futuristic approaches in sound design. Together, they reveal how these ideas shaped Evoke’s creation and why resynthesis marks the next evolution in vocal processing.
INSTANT TRANSFORMATIONS
At its core, Evoke is built for immediacy. What once demanded layers of routing and processing now unfolds in seconds. Lead lines dissolve into harmonies, whispers stretch into pads, a single phrase can become a choir. It invites you to chase ideas as they happen. Keeping you in the flow instead of watching inspiration fade behind a tangle of processing chains.
This playlist highlights artists like Bon Iver, Noisia, and Oneohtrix Point Never, each exploring spontaneity through sound. Their work captures that same sense of immediacy. Music shaped in the moment, where experimentation feels instinctive and transformation is instantaneous.
It was in 7:15 CR∑∑KS that we found our inspiration. Alone in the vacuum of recorded space Bon Iver sings about someone he loved, and then ultimately lost. We hear tales of beauty and the emptiness that follows after that beauty fades.
A single voice alone with a harmonizer. 7:15 CR∑∑KS leaves us aching like Bon Iver aches. Showing us just how powerful and transformative something as simple as an audio effect can be to a composition
HYPERMODERN
Evoke is a shift in perspective for vocal processing. Built on the concept of vocal resynthesis, it treats the voice as raw material for new forms of expression. Moving past conventional processing into something fluid and alive.
These songs capture that spirit. Featuring artists such as Flume, Madeon, FKA Twigs, and SOPHIE, this playlist reflects the same energy that inspired Evoke: a space where technology and the human voice intertwine to create something entirely new.
In Voices, Flume pulls the human voice apart and rebuilds it from the inside out. Fracturing, bending, and layering the sample until it becomes something entirely new. It’s a detailed look at how vocal manipulation can blur the line between organic and synthetic, emotion and design.
EXPRESSIVE AND PERSONAL
Even at its most experimental, Evoke never loses sight of the intimacy that makes the human voice powerful. Beneath the technology lies a respect for the emotional weight of a single take; the imperfection that gives it life. Whether subtle or extreme, every transformation carries that same fingerprint of feeling.
This playlist reflects that tension between the digital and the human, between code and confession. Artists like Dua Saleh, Frank Ocean, and James Blake blur that divide, crafting voices that are at once mechanical and tender, defiant and delicate.
In “Trash Snacks,” Dua Saleh sings of identity, disconnection, and the flicker of emotion within the circuitry of the modern world. Their voice fractures and multiplies, buried in distortion yet glowing with warmth “sparkling 1’s and 0’s” shimmering like emotional data rendered into sound.
Evoke was created to honor the character in every voice. Inspired by the artists who’ve stretched and reshaped what a vocal can be, it stands as a tool for those continuing that exploration.
