We tell stories through our video-game, ambient, cinematic, electronic, folk music. Gersom also got into sampling in 2021 and is kinda obsessed ever since! Dekoningtan was born when Verity Tan and Gersom de Koning met in high school in Bangkok. Not only did we enjoy making music together, we also fell in love! We debuted a song at our high school talent show with one voice and beat-boxing to create a melody. We've played music together since 2007, but decided to properly combine our talents as a duo in 2010. This was when watching music Youtube one day, Gersom said: "I could do that..." and Verity said: "Then prove it!"

Simple, honest, and lovely
I just keep coming back to this piano, because it sounds like the ones I used to find in school hallways, grandma's living room, etc. It just has such good character as the creator says: "Age has worn the piano"
I'd say it is a unique piano with a great old-timey feel to it (putting it through a radio / tape / vinyl filter really is a wonderful combo).
Maybe biased, but...
The fact that Steven, Owen, Fred, and Angus managed to put together such an epic mix and make the instrument so powerful and useful with all these submissions (which also had so variation and creativity) is just wonderful! It is FREE and yet sounds as epic as many paid-for braam libraries. It is a testament to how great this community is when things all come together. The Braam really kicks braam butt!
This is the hammered dulcimer I've been looking for.
I love the sound of dulcimers and I've been on the lookout for different ones for about 2 years. I found some I like, some even that I love, but this one I REALLY love.
Recording quality = superb.
The instrument itself just also has a wonderful tone and the use of different mics and the effects make it a magical, easy to use out of the box kind of instrument. Will definitely feature this in one of my songs! Bravo.What a lovely sound!
This instrument is very well wide and encompassing. It has a lovely sound and you can tell that Sage really put thought and effort into crafting this beautiful sound. Well done. Love it.
I can't believe it is even bigger...
Bro, the original was already amazing and now this add-ons make it even more spectacular. This was really wonderful. Great work, expect a tip soon!
