Loop Theory returns once again with another epic Downtempo release. Tokyo Downtempo is an exotic set of construction kits with an Asian flavor. There are 6 construction kits with isolated drums and instruments in each. Tempos range from 70 to 105. Each kit is packed with pianos, synths, basses, drums, atmosphere, and more. This is one serious set of sonic ear candy.
Future Waves has the attitude of ‘more is more’, featuring punchy drums, driven trap baselines and unhinged synths. All of this makes full use of wavetable synths and classic, full bodied hardware. Expertly designed and produced, none of this would be useful without some care taken to its style and incorporation with other genres. For every stuttering kick pattern or overly loud bass, there’s a softer pad and ‘ear hooking’ melody keeping it all together. This pack is a no brainer for producers looking for that wild, glitch-hop inspired sound, or indeed most left of centre future bass production. The percussion, foley and FX folders would be just as at home in HipHop, and the melody work although intense in places, are a great starting point for House, Techno or Downtempo.
Emotive Pianos includes filmic, atmospheric, emotional and lo-fi samples covering a number of playing styles including chord sequences, melodies and soundscapes. The pack combines harmonic, melodic and soundscape samples to allow the user to develop textured pieces. Samples suit lo-fi and downtempo productions alongside soundtrack and chillout pieces.
Late Night Electronic comes with over 1GB of content, with loops, one shots and sampler patches that display a staggering amount of creativity and inspiration. The processing of the sounds is focused on creating sonic character by driving and saturating the sounds and not over-Eqing. Inside the collection you will find 221 loops with warm and fat analogue sounds from vintage gear including the Korg Poly 61 synth, 808 and 909 all recorded to tape to add to character in keeping with the Lo-Fi aesthetic. The drum loops cover a wide range from Garage, Footwork, Reggeaton, House and Trap and are loaded with plenty of funky swing and groove. 264 one shots back up the loops section and Include kicks, snares, hats, synth hits, bass hits, FX and more, all ready to be placed into your next track for that trademark ethereal Bearcubs sound. Each hit has also been carefully mapped to one of 83 soft sampler patches (for NNXT, Halion, EXS24, SFZ and Kontakt), ready to jam out on your favoured MIDI keyboard in a moment’s notice.
