Remap function keys to the Pixelbook media keys

I've installed kubuntu on a pixelbook and would like the media buttons to not act as the function keys. I'd prefer a gui program to remap them.
I tried to do it using xev and a few other tools, but most of the actions are increase brightness and stuff that I couldn't find keycodes for.
