Club Beats (488MB)
To get people moving on the dance floor you need big-sounding beats that
have been arranged and compressed to provide the perfect balance of
complexity and space, weight and dynamics. Our samples team has been
locked away over the last few weeks cooking up some heavyweight drum loops
ready to rock the clubs. You'll find 104 loops covering glitch-hop, grime,
house and techno, divided into folders of 70, 80, 125, 130 and 138BPM.
Reggae & Dub Construction Kits (470MB)
It's time to get laid-back with this exclusive pack of reggae and dub
construction kits. All the usual suspects are here, from muted guitar
plucks, off-beat strumming and organ stabs to big piano chords, all
processed with a healthy dose of reverb and delay. You'll also find tight
-sounding drum grooves to get heads nodding, with a full mix plus loops for
each individual element. There are five construction kits in total in WAV,
Apple Loops and REX2 formats, with tempos ranging from 65-70BPM.
Prime Loops Taster Pack (175MB)
This month's Prime Loops selection has a bit of an urban theme, comprising
175MB of pro loops taken from the company's latest releases. First up, to
accompany the review in the Mini Reviews section there are quirky synths
and popping beats from the Champagne Rockaz pack in the style of Timbaland
and Crookers. You'll also find raucous vocal shouts from Dirty South Vocal
Samples, slowed-down, grimey synths in Trap Attack and Urban Magic, and in
-your-face bass lines and beats in Dubstep Takeova. To round things off
we've also thrown in a few heavy electro bass loops and beats from the
Complex Electro Synths and Electro House Syndicate packs.
