    Rating: 8/10

    A solid pack of loops and hits, all of a high quality which you would expect from Loopmasters. The bpm is around 172 and there's an awesome selection of atmosphere loops and leads. think outside of the box and this pack will work wonders.


    These boys are top tier producers now, setting the bar very high for dnb. This pack goes you a taste of what makes them such in demand producers. I would focus on the drum loops as there all polished and ready to roll. They all sit at 174bpm and are perfect for a summer anthem.


    Freddie can't do no wrong, this pack is pure fire. Various bpms and a great selection of break names puts this pack at the top of my list for 2023. Expect to hear this pack in a few tunes in coming years.

    A solid pack from one the new school who is rolling it out right now. Set packs are some of the best in the game and buy on site. This pack sits at 174bpm and bass all the loops you need for a roller.


    What can I say besides Satl is a wonder kid of production. His tunes are effortless and rolling and have a maturity above his years. This pack represents this and the high standards of North Quarter records and is a testament of Quality Drum & Bass.


    A big fan if the Ghost syndicate packs, always coming with lots of different vibes and originality with the science. This pack is no different have a listen and get it on. Heaps of one shots and loops and my favourite is the combo loops.

    Some impressive drums in this pack from EST who are bringing the serious dnb sample packs at the minute. The quality here is top you have some great loops and hits. I'm looking forward to more from Est.


    Monrroe - Drum & Bass

    Rating: 10/10

    This Boy is just a breath of fresh air to d&b and this pack reflects that. Monrroe drum breaks are perfectly executed and I will be rolling these out in future productions. Everything you need in a pack right here.


    170 all day long, This pack just rolls out effortlessly a great selection of atmos loops bass loops and full drums plus some really tight melodies and all the top loops and one shots you need. Dreamy having a magical or pleasantly unreal quality; dreamlike.


    Arabian Flutes

    Rating: 8/10

    This pack is set up at 122bpm not ideal for dnb but it still works. The pack for full of flutes perfect channeling your late 90s style dnb or new trap beats. Cut up the hits and melodies and rearrange for that Blue note vibe. Make sure to check out the bonus loops folder. Impressive most impressive. Enjoy


    Fix up look sharp, Fixate brings his A game to Loopmasters with this serious pack of hits and loops, I'm a fan of his drum work and its great to be able to get a solid understanding of how he puts together his signature drums.

    Roll it out Vici, A solid pack from this French producer, I'm feeling the influences. The bass multi-samples are great I can see these getting rinsed plus there's a great selection of drum loops and hits. Enjoy


    Straight vibes this is perfectly crafted and as current as you can get. Its all about the drums for me, schooled up and funky. You have 3 folders of drums broken into fills, full drums and hat perc loops. This is a excellent pack. Highly Recommend.


    So I'm a fan of Proxima work, his recent releases on shogun is outstanding, this pack has all the flavour of his productions. The percussion and top loops have heaps of funk and I will definitely be using this.


    We keep it underground with this awesome pack of inspiring female vocals, perfect for drum and bass. they are all keyed up and there's also a great selection of effects on each vocal. I feel this style of vocal is missing in dnb. salute!

    This is Super solid, check for it even if you don't like halftime dnb, the hits alone and bass sounds, drum hits etc are on point Im feeling the loops too. I'm on the 170 flex so this is great, who ever made this pack salute.


    Journey

    Rating: 8/10

    Journey into space with this great pack from Ghost Syndicate, The drum loops and percussive glitches are excellent for the autonomic 170 sound that's missing in dnb. I'm a fan of the Ghost Syndicate packs - check for them.


    This can only be a 10 from such a talent artist with his own distinct sound. If you know his catalogue you will notice breaks and bass sound from some of his pivotal tunes, everything mixed to this high standards. Buy this now.

    Salary Man pumping out the packs, another solid outing here, some great construction kits to get you started. No half steeping herec- the pack is fire. Personally I would have liked an entire pack at 170bpm its that good.


    This is ultra and I love all the ultra packs, So much in this to get stuck Into decent drum loops a lot of half time drums in here. Great drum fx and bass loops. Everything you need to roll out a track.

    Salaryman are on the up with another solid pack. What I like about this pack is that there are two construction kits for beginners which can help give you get into the mechanics of a track, drag and drop and roll it out remix it and start to get some ideas rolling. For me I'm a sucker for new hits and loops.


    They see me rolling at 174bpm. Some schooled out drums in this pack that I will draw for, loving the effects and bass loops. The multi synths and and bass's are my thing, I'm always looking for more raw elements to twist up. This is one of the better packs available right now.


    A sample pack who's reflections produce changing patterns in drum & bass, Maybe I'm spinning but this pack Is solid. The pack has solid drum grooves and a great selection of one shots fx, tonal atmospheres synth hits etc. Get it.

    This is great for those that cant afford or dont have the space for a modular set up. Lots of great stabs and bass sounds fx etc that can be cut up and used in dnb very much the sound that I'm into at the minute. Enjoy!


    Another 5pin Media Pack prooving that they are coming up with the serious sounds. I'm just a sucker for packs like this, the drums are rolling, solid bass hits and everything else you need. Thisis the liquid that I like. Rollersssssss. Rollersssssss. Rollersssssss.


    5Pin Media roll the minimal grooves. Heaps of well executed drums rolling at 172 with folders of , percussion, ride and shaker loops. plus rex acid and mind , sample patches and one shots. This pack will feature heavily in my future productions. check check check.

    Im feeling these Singmakers packs, Dont be put off by the name its not all near on this pack, The drums and bass's can be switched up for any genre of dnb. Overall the drums have heaps of energy and chunk, The bass sounds are all very current progressions. All the drums are at 17bpm which is a nice change as I love working at that bpm. Techsteppin...


    Serotonin Drum & Bass

    Rating: 7/10

    The d&b sample packs keep coming, Serotonin d&b keeps the momentum rolling, heaps of loop to mix up, everything rolling at 172bpm, the drums are solid, a couple I have already started to use. Some great melodies that I need to check for too.


    Original Jungle Breaks

    Rating: 9/10

    Original Rudebwoy material. This Is a solid pack with drum loops running rom 160>184 well thought out and engineered. Plus the individual drum hits a great. This reminds me of the old jungle warfare ads from back when. Essential.


    Apocalypse Now is all you need to roll out some rhythms, some proper drag and drop breaks that you can get rolling and catch a vibe from straight away, the pack also has some very good percussion intro loops that you will get serious milage from as this can be difficult to get right for a novice producer. Check for it.


    Salaryman on point yet again, plenty of drum loops ranging in tempos & percussive and top line loops pack that can help turn over sections in a track and keep the creativity flowing. I'm finding these packs are perfect when you don't have much time to finish off a track and noodle about but just want to catch a vibe so dropping in a perc loop just gets the extra energy you need to a drum line.


    Junglist Workout

    Rating: 8/10

    These guys know there beats, my thing is always drum loops and looking at what I can use from a dnb pack to give my tunes energy in that field. The drums roll from 174 to 180, a little fast for me, but they're solid and have nice separations for mixing between kits. Defiantly worth the purchase.


    Another liquid rollers pack, but this one is from monster sounds and its the real deal, it doesn't say who produced it but sounds solid to me, the drum loops are ready to roll and highly recommend. Also its great to have a variety of tempos some of the packs are very fixed on one bpm but this floats from 170-174. check it.


  • Zeskullz Cloud Rap

    Rating: 7/10

    No chance of clear sky's with this pack. This is merkys and perfect for layering into some liquid dnb or an intro to a jump up tune, heaps of great vocals and ones shot's that can be dubbed off. It may not be for everybody but its what i'm into so have a listen.


    Liquid DnB

    Rating: 10/10

    174bpm all day. This pack Is straight grooves, all the loop folders for drums and basses are perfect, I have already used some drum elements in some forthcoming tunes. There wasn't much to offer in the one shot folders besides some solid drum hits but otherwise it was the loops that did it for me. I love to drag and drop a drum groove and capture vibe quickly. Highly recommend.


    These guys are really on point and I hope to collaborate with them in the future, Patife has always been a vibes guy and Vangeliez is a top producer. This pack doesn't get any better, the drums alone are some of the best about and theres all the music and bass loops and extra bits you need. get with the flavour.


    Deadly & deep is another solid d&b pack more suited for the harder end of the spectrum. I found it more aggressive then deep. Their pack has solid drum loops all at 174. The bass stabs are very effected, more on the neuro vibe. There are a selection of bass and drum hits, which will always be helpful when needed. I found this pack to be more suited to those who like the sound of Dispatch Rec, early Teebee, Ulterior Motive etc.


    Dread come to conquer. All the Dread packs have their moments, I have them all I recommend you get them too. The percussion loops and drum loops are heavy, and bass hots and multis, top quality material. Dub vibes for days


    Jungle DNB

    Rating: 8/10

    Serial killaz on the flex, A very simple pack reminds me of the old jungle warfare packs but worth checking out. Some great fx, bass sounds and drum hits, classic snare tones and some great percussion hits. If your a fan of jungle dnb this is for you. raw.

    Acidddddd, im feeling the acid vibes at the minute, especially in my d&b. This pack is essential if you don't have a 303, just to cut a stab or loop up a couple of notes, this pack does the trick. There are some great synth loops, hits and fx. Long live Marcus Intalex the 303 master.


    Medium Rare, this has the juice. There is so much going on in this pack its hard to pick one part. You have a extensive collection of instrument hits, class, horn, synth, piano etc. and each folder is solid. Then theres the loop folders, which took me half a day to get through theres that much music here. This isn't going to be everybody's cup of tea but for me just a couple of chord detuned and some distortion and you have some 90s optical influenced dnb. I warned you.


    Drum & Bass Shadows

    Rating: 8/10

    Yes to this pack, all your typical folders, rec, midi and sampler patches. But I personally enjoyed and will use the drums all separated into loops with high snares and kicks plus full loops so you can mix and match between steps. Everything is at 172bpm so it's easy to get a quick groove running on the fly. Also note that there are perc, ride and drum fill loops that can be mixed in with the drums. Definitely one for the NFM library.


    Liquid Funk DnB Vol 2

    Rating: 8/10

    Following on from Vol 1 which I highly recommend, Vol 2 sets the standard high with a great selection of drums from 170,172,174bpm and basses, arps, melodies, pads & progressions all laid out with the key and bpm to get you ready to roll out the summer anthem. The one shot folders are solid and I will be rinsing this pack in future releases.


    Drum & Bass Fx 2

    Rating: 8/10

    Jungle is riding a wave of success in the media and the clubs of the uk, This pack is perfect to jump on the bandwagon. Most of the pack is 165bpm and is nostalgia ultra, excellent for layering into some proto-jungle or modern dnb compositions. Also hunt out vol1.


    A Brilliant pack from one of our genre's figure heads, a very personalised pack. I've had this pack a couple of days and have already managed to draw for a few bass sounds and breaks. This is what I would expect from George. Great work. Buy it for the Rhodes alone.


    Maximal Drum & Bass

    Rating: 8/10

    Another one for the Library, I'm really impressed with the production values on this sample pack. The drums are current and well rounded and it's great to see the separation of hats kicks and snare plus full loops becoming a standard in the packs. A bonus for novice or professional producer is the inspiration kits. This will help those of you who are still trying to get an understanding of stem mixing and how elements sit in the mix.


    This pack should be screaming produced by Proxima. For those that love his style and level of production this pack is solid. The pack sets at 174 serious drag and drop elements. The drums got me, I love the detailing and weight. Grab this if your looking to write harder dance floor numbers with a tech edge.


    Lovers Rock & Dub

    Rating: 8/10

    This pack Rocks, so much resource and everything here is so well laid out, the loops selections can be mixed to create entirely new tunes, you have electric bass, guitar, horn, organ selection of per and piano loops all ready to be mixed up and lopped. Everything is well labelled and works well at 160-170bpm. Junglists, are you ready?


    EDGE

    Rating: 9/10

    Ghost syndicate coming with another stellar pack, pure drum education. Im not familiar with Ghostek but Nami is on fire with dispatch release, so you know your getting the goods here. The pack is broken into the standard formats, loops and hits, its all about the drums for me personally, the grooves and separation of loops is excellent. tempos range from 170, 172 AND 174. If your into dispatch 1985, exit etc grab this.

    Rating: 8/10

    Dabro flying the flag for d&b with a solid selection of loops and hits, there are also stem kits for those of you who want to just have a vibe instantly running. there are some great drum and bass loops, And look out for the guitar loops. I personal enjoyed the drum hits, its always good to keep adding and replacing your kit to give it a little shine.


    I'm not familiar with Nytram but I do have all 8 volumes of Dread recordings sample packs, and it's worth every cent. Sampler & rex folders and hits and loops it's all here from 172-174bpm. Some serious sub hits & multis and great top loops, which always add a little groove to your own signature kick and snare programming. Check for this and all the octopus arms.


    Neurofunk DNA

    Rating: 10/10

    A proper drum & Bass pack, The bpm is set to 172bpm, theres a great selection of bass loops and drum loops, which are of a standard that you can drag and drop with out any real work needed. The quality is up there. there are also some synth loops, one shots etc. All in all a solid entry for d&b pack of 2018.


    An excellent pack full of 6 inspiring tracks that can be re cut and resampled, looped and turned into something completely fresh. Everything here is warm and soulful and with a little treatment can really get your creative juice flowing. Tempo is irrelevant as I'm just looking for certain elements to dub off like a horn stab and the accompanying saxophone or bass loop that may work nice on a turn over. Give this pack a chance if you're into jazzy flavours.


  • The title isn't very specific but to clarify it means good drum and bass. The tempo of the pack is 172 BPM, there are heaps of drum loops which all retain a personal groove. I'm not super blown away by the verb on them but with some editing the drums are fine for me. The bass loops and variations have their moments. You could write a entire track with dragging and dropping some of these elements together. Big up Soul Rush.


    Im a huge fan of MJ Cole, his first album Sincere still hits the spot, and hasn't aged a bit. This pack still has those MJ strings and there are a couple of loops that feel like they have been lifted from that era. The bass hits and bass multis are perfect for jungle dnb, drum hits and synth hits etc also all work at higher tempos. I can't fault this pack. And look forward to part 2.


    Completely original, Synkro delivers what is a perfect personal pack of trademark drums and bass. The bass & synth multis are excellent and i will enjoy switching them all up as well as the drum loops parts and percussion, the atmosphere and dirt on on this pack is perfect. Don't think because its very minimal this cant be used for any other kind of d&b, the production is top notch and any groove can be created and reinforced with such distinctive skeleton drums. I real pleasure to work with.


    Live Drum & Bass Breaks

    Rating: 10/10

    Original breaks are gold, this pack doesn't disappoint. There are so many breaks ready to roll, all laid out in tempo. What I like about this pack the most is the looseness in the drumming, very human feeling and not super quantised. Also there is a great selection of hits, rex files and sampler patches. I can hear these breaks getting sampled for decades.


    Drum And Bass 2

    Rating: 8/10

    This pack isn't for the light hearted, heavy drums and nasty bass, very synthetic FX and music loops. I personally liked the the top line drum loops and breaks, definitely something I could work into some full cycle styles. Some of the bass stabs work perfectly filtered down. Highly recommend for the those that want something dance floor.


    A very unique pack of nostalgic sounds perfect for all styles of electronic music as well as dnb. Even though the tempos range 90>140 bpm, parts can be re worked into 170. Also check for the analog synth section of the pack which has a great selection of roland & yamaha hits and stabs. The guitar slide and fx is also nice has that groove i could use in some full cycle productions.

    Jump Up DnB 2

    Rating: 9/10

    Jump Jump and we are off, Rankin on point as usual with another d&b pack, plenty of great drum, top, pad, perc and synth loops, Even though the pack sits at 175 bpm you can work it down to 170 if need be, which is my personal bpm of choice at the minute. For me I'm always on the hunt for new drum hits and bass stabs, so this has kept me busy for the week. The pack is exactly what you need if you're wanting to get a little taste of the current jump up flex taking over all the festivals at the minute.


    Summer DnB Vibes

    Rating: 10/10

    Summer vibezzzz, Im not sure if the title really reflects this pack well, this really does cover all seasons of d&b. The pack loops roll around 160/170 which is perfect for me as i enjoy the lower tempo more. Everything is drag and drop and the one shots and multi samples open things up to your own interpretation and original flare. I would also recommend getting stuck into the sampler patches and midi files and buy this just for the bass multi samples great for filling out your library.


    I love these dread packs, full of raw breaks and proper bass stabs. I'm not familiar with Saline's work but this pack is on point. All the breaks sit at 175bpm which means a bit of work for me to re-roll them down to 170 but the quality is there. Heaps to get your teeth stuck into, drum hits, synth hits and multis and bass hits and multis which i find really helpful. Essential junglist archive material.


    I didn't know much about MDE before this pack, so its been a good weekend getting immersed into this folder of goodness. I personally love the bass hits and synth stabs there are also some great synth and vocal loops to cut up. I have been working this into my techno inspired dnb.


    Proxima should have his named splashed all over this, highly recommended and very well constructed. He's a great engineer and this pack oozes groove. The pack is all set at 172bpm I'm a fan of the drums and percussion loops, which will get a good airing. Well crafted and essential.


    Minimal DnB

    Rating: 8/10

    Minimal DnB is ethereal & atmospheric, this fills the void between other packs on the market and delves into the litchi end of the spectrum. I'm a fan of the percussion loops and hits. I work mainly around 170bpm so this is perfect for me, just drag and drop.


    Future Drum & Bass

    Rating: 9/10

    Future futuuuuuuttttuuuuurrrrree. This pack is running, some classic breaks that have been recited and rolled out at 172 bpm. Great for starting off a tune and catching a vibe. My only issue with the drums is that the kick drum is very similar if not the same in a lot of the drum loops. But thats easily fixed with some editing. There are some great bass and music loops, one shots and sample patches, and overall this is one of the strongest D&B packs about.


    Indie Electronic

    Rating: 8/10

    Indie electronic is a must have for those who cross genres and like to try new musical directions. The pack is heavy, laden with some amazing drum, bass guitar and music loops. Great for getting ideas down, the synth hit and midi folders are really helpful. Big love Dabro music


    Melodic Techno

    Rating: 8/10

    5pin Media keep them coming, with another strong pack, stacked with rex2 live 9, groove templates, midi apple loops, multi samples and everything else. Great bass loops, drum loops grooves, one shots and awesome drums and perc fx. A great pack for deeper dnb. Everything here is warm and of the highest quality. Im very much a fan.


    Ultra Pack 3 makes me want to buy Ultra Pack 2 ( which i missed out on) note: Ultra Pack 1 is equally as good. Anyways you need all three. Its a huge chunk of resource, I have already sampled some of the drum hits and sub hits Its refreshing to have access to such a solid sample pack. also there are video tutorials, track starters and everything else you need to get started all ready to roll.


    Liquid Electronica

    Rating: 8/10

    Liquid - it's in the title, it has to be fluid and flowing. The pack isn't based around a d'n'b tempo but the sounds, melodic loops and one shots and ambient pads work perfectly at 170+. Expect to hear some of this pack in future NFM productions.


    Hybris rolls it out with this stellar pack of precision samples, superbly eqed and hitting all the right frequencies. All the loops sit at 172, the hat and perch loops just work perfectly drag and drop, i would also recommend the sfx loops. Check the bass multis and syth multis and drum hits work on any vibe d&b. Disrupt the system.


    Blinding work from Breakage. This is everything you would want from a beatsmith like Breakage. The pack is all at 170, the drums are to die for, percussion & tops just lift up your tunes and give them a perfect groove. I have already rolled out a couple of tunes with this pack. Expect to hear these breaks in dnb tunes for another twenty years.


    The Abstract transports you into a mechanical world of loops and sounds, which can be combined and flipped a multitude of times. Textures, tonal loops, ensemble drums and top loops make up the mass of the pack. This reminded me of Ed Rush and Optical's creep album, plenty to get your head around and vibe off.


  • Hip Hop Chilla

    Rating: 8/10

    Chilling in the cut with this authentic ambient and hiphop fusion sample pack. This pack is perfect for jungle with all the grooves sitting around 80bpm, some excellent drum breaks and bass loops. The midi and rex2 files are excellent and you also have the sampler patches. If you're about warm grooves this is for you.


    Another concrete pack filled with garage vocals bars and Production-ready hooks. Well recorded and of the high standard all keyed up with bpms and ready to drop into your DAW. Simple and to the point. Essential for liquid d&b.


    Cinematic Hip Hop 2

    Rating: 8/10

    I totally recommend this pack a wicked resource and perfect for adding a cinematic edge to your compositions. There is a great depth to the pack and its very thorough. A great selection of melodic atmospheric and stripped loops plus some vocals drums and bass loops. This is perfect for deep drum & bass.


    Organic to the core, this pack has warmth. Perfectly laid out loops on one shots, all keyed up and with the bpm which makes it really easy and useful to use. I'm personally into the drum breaks which are really well constructed. There are also stripped drum loops if you're just after some broken percussion or tops without editing out the kicks and snares. I'm looking forward to vol 3.


    Dark Cinema

    Rating: 10/10

    Opening credits, atmosphere and the drums roll in. Another seamless excursion in sound from Loopmasters. Synths, drums bass, guitars and percussion all at various tempos and some seriously great hits of all the above. It's worth purchasing this for the synth multi packs, really thorough.


    Futuristic RnB

    Rating: 9/10

    For the Futurists out there, two folders of loops and one shots, all keyed up and ready to roll out. Some great vocals + guitars and field recordings to bend your ear. Innovative and inspirational. A must have!!

    Some great resource right here, tempos ranging from 120>128 but if you know what ya looking for re cutting and time stretching these vocals plus pitching them up and down will work perfectly for d&b. There are some great phrases and riff cuts to work with plus some spoken word. Expect to here some of this on forthcoming NFM productions.


    Experimental DnB

    Rating: 10/10

    The catch line to this pack read's "If you're a fan of the dark, moody and adrenaline pumping sounds, you are going to love “Experimental DnB”. Well i am a fan and this pack is exactly what I'm looking for. The tempo of the pack ranges from 165/175 bpm and you have everything you need to write some thought provoking d&b. I personally liked the drum loop and ones shots especially the percussion.


    Movie Soundtrack

    Rating: 9/10

    pow this was unexpected, so much to work with, the quality is top notch, great cinematic atmosphere. All the loops are sitting at 140 bpm but just a huge array of drums top loops, music and bass. I found this very useful. This pack will start you off at the open credits and make your music wide screen.


    Drum & Bass Liquidism

    Rating: 8/10

    I love this catch line "tranquil sounds to take you to a Drum and Bass Nirvana" pretty much sums it up. This pack is very current in its formula, i wouldn't say it encompasses all liquid dnb its very clean and well thought out. you have full drums, perc loops and top loops all at 174. I think this pack is worth it just for these folders alone. Buy on sight.


    Rockwell UK Drum & Bass

    Rating: 10/10

    Rockwell has forged ahead with some of the most forward thinking d&b in the last decade. This pack reflects his recent catalogue of productions and the quality he brings to d&b. I recommend this pack to all d&b headz as its in a league of its own, the bass sounds alone are worth the buy.


    This pack isn't for the faint hearted. its pretty in ya face, with the dnb style, the basses are a bit full on for me, but it was the drums that i grooved with. A nice selection to fill pout ya library. I would also look at the synths and atmosphere folders full of useful air candy.

    One more from the shadows, the follow up pack to vol 1 which gives you a series of construction kits based around a tempo and key. I find these packs super fun to work with, as it sets the tone for me to build from, often i end up only using one of two elements from the pack before everything else is deleted but as a resource to kick start some ideas this is really useful.

    Current UK Grime sounds, great vox and fx, plus bass multis, drum loops and musical loops. I found the drum hits and instrument multis really helpful. Essential if you're following the original UK sound.


  • Laid back in every which way, I'm totally vibing off this pack at the moment. As they say in the promo "laid-back blend of soothing melodic elements, rustic beats and sun-soaked bass. Step into the crystal clear waters of Liquid Beat and Future Chill and watch the sun rise!" Im in agreement. This pack ticks all the boxes, has your standard rex files, sampler patches and bonus midi, + plus a great selection of drum & bass multis and fx and synth multis. Also there a extensive amount of loops to get stuck into and switch up. Check out the demo pack, really nice elements to add to deep dnb.

This pack has a nice balance of elements and sounds but i would get familiar with Brassicas work as this may not be for everybody but it is for me. ps check the bonus midi and rex files and sample patches, hours of fun.

    Another addition to the library, lockjaw who I'm familiar with from his dispatch release puts together this very current sounding pack. All the loops sit around 172 which is my only draw back but you can easily get around that. The production is top notch and his drums have plenty of dynamics and air which make them also very timeless. In this pack you have drum, bass perch and music loops all keyed and ready to go and plenty of hits bass multis, music and drum hits sfx and my favourite dark horns. Big up all the aussie crew.

    I wasn't sure if this had anything to do with dread recordings or a new artist but regardless its a solid collection of rolling drums perfect for the beginner or expert junglist. You have drum loops effected and raw all running at 175 bpm which was my only gripe. it would have been good to have a selection of bpms. However this is a good pack and a recommend it for building ya resource of beats and breaks.

There is a lot of great one shots and multis, with the right effects and tempo you can create some very interesting compositions regardless of the tempos equipped. I would recommend this to anybody who enjoys vintage atmospheric music.


    I have always loved Eveson's drum programming, he has a good knowledge of how to roll out classic breaks and supporting baselines.

    Rating: 8/10

    Vocals in Dnb will always be needed, this pack is a great resource just for the pharses or adding some abstract human voices to your soundccape. Well recorded but you need to add some science to this pack and drench out the vocals in effects to get that dirt.

Great bass loops, drum loops grooves, vox and music loops, one shots and awesome drums and perc fx. A great pack for deeper dnb. Everything here is very rich and of the highest quality. I totally recommend this.


    A chunk of drones, sweeps and other random analog textures to build up some atmosphere to your sci-fi productions. Very much in the vein of the BBC Radiophonic workshop sounds that populated Doctor Who, Blake 7 & The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy and many other BBC sci-fi programmes between 1958 & 1994. This pack is great for if you use kontakt,nnxt,sfz,halion or exs24 you can get inside the patches and really start to create some different modulations and add you own effects to get it more dirty and low fi.

    I have been on this all week entirely for the great energetic drums and drum construction kits and hits to deconstruct and make your own. Total science are masters of effortless drum programming keeping there sound progressive and yet retaining everything that is good about the previous two decades of jungle. Also hunt out some ice bass stabs and atmospherics and musical rhythms. Its also worth noting that the first pack the released with loopmasters is worth checking.


    Im heavily addicted to these packs and even though it feels like your getting the same product re interpreted there is so much more hidden away.

    This is a lot of fun and perfect for novice or professional producer who wants that analog edge but cant fit all the synths in his room, its a multi genre pack and very clean and full and great to work with. Great if your using reason or kontakt, halion etc and as audio. I found the modular rhythms and fx, chord and pads to work perfect with our compositions.


    Another High quality pack perfect for reworking into your arrangements saving you a lot of time and effort. wither its soundtracks or songs the depth of the samples is perfect to set the mood on your productions. some of the pack is very organic and fits perfectly into our arrangements. it would have been great to get the sampler patches for some of these samples there that good.

In this pack you have the rex and sampler patches and a great selection of sounds and fxs, a awesome selection of musical hits, dub horns, flutes, gats and sirens, fills and loops at various tempos its all here. Also all the bass and drums you need i was drawn to all the one shots and hits which have helped out our sound a lot. This is a must for those who want something a little dusty for there tunes.


    A very talented producer and a great pack which shows off everything good about Enei's productions. You have all the basic hits and loops and stabs but its the quality of what's on offer and the clean production and standout grooves that set this apart from the other drum and bass packs. This pack is perfect for your drum library a real resource that is value for money. Im hooked on Volume 1 and cant wait till volume 2 drops.


    Some great resource here, All the basics are here rex and sampler patches and folders of great sounds to add depth to our more musical productions. You have some great textures pads and fxs and a solid selection of bass notes that will come in handy for some dnb inclined producers.

There is a fantastic selection of well processed Korg Polysix, Sequential Circuits Pro One bass sounds and samples plus Roland SH-101 stabs and loops plus heaps more. This is a inspiring pack and a bench mark for other packs to follow.


    Analogue fun again a awesome resource for soundscapes and atmospherics. I found the video very helpful and the impulses work great in cubase with Reverence. Everything is broken down into tempos with a huge volume of resource for each. There is a lot of great cinematic samples and with the right effects and tempo you can create some amazing compositions regardless of the tempos supplied. It would be great to have some more packs in this series.

    Wavs wavs wavs and a lot more, a huge selection to choose from, sirens, risers, synth bleeps and trap horns its all here and ready made. The drum section is ok some elements to get you started. But it was the horn riffs and bleeps i was after with some good effects these sounds can be used in dnb and dubstep and twisted up to give your music some different dynamics. Lets see if we get any trap step rolling.


    Dark Dub 2

    Rating: 9/10

    This is a must have for those who like there dub dnb and deeper grooves, you get it all bass hits and loops drum loops and hits, fxs, tonal sounds and vocal chops. Everything is well laid out and easy to find. also check the bonus combination stems and the rex loops. I love this series so much for so little, i just keep digging up little sounds and atmospherics in here and drenching them in more effects. You cant go wrong with this as your number 1 dub resource.


    This is juicy so much vibes to pick from i really enjoyed all the hammond organ multis and dub effects. there are a loud of vocal takes to cut up and re phrase. The musical section of guitar, bubble, horn & piano stabs are excellent and the main reason i went for this pack. The drum kit hits are good but do not have the tempo or a full track fill attached to the folder which made it a little slow to chew through when your looking for a certain vibe. I feel that this needs to be essential in all packs. Again sampler patches and rex loops are great to use.


    Dark Dub

    Rating: 9/10

    Great Resource heaps of bass samples even though they are at 140 its the one shot hits your after. There is also a great selection of percussive and rhythmic loops and sounds to chew through. The drum components and hits and fx are the highlight for this pack. everything is well laid out and of the highest quality recording. This is a staple for anybody building up a solid studio sound bank and library.


    I was not sure what i was getting into here, I like to write downtempo tracks and enjoyed the demos that where available to check before purchasing this product, but expected to get the parts clean and not so dirty. But overall some real nice grooves and hits i am sure i will find some time to utilise this pack. I have only gone through all the wav packs and not the sampler patch's. recommended for headz that enjoy well produced dirty grooves. Real hip hop.


    K-tee is a very solid producer and this pack is essential library material. and after the friction and Icicle pack a follow up shogun pack cant go wrong. You have all the basic rex sampler patches and a huge volume of sounds fxs and wavs. Everything is broken down into hits and multis and for me i was more interested in his bass parts and synth hits. But the drums are very good and all round i just cant fault this pack i keep going back to it and catching vibes. serious resource.


    Future Dub 2

    Rating: 7/10

    There is alot to get through on the construction kits, I focused more on creating ambient soundscapes and implementing this to my drum and bass using the rex kits via reason into cubase. the kits range in bpm and have basics to get you started and help you create your own sound. There are also some classic vocal cuts to look for. I wouldnt recommend this for somebody starting out unless you know where your at. This is a good framework for a seasoned producer to own.


  • data's "sentinel" was one of my favorite tunes in previous years, so i was eager to get deep into this pack and see whats what. its drum parts are broken down into basic hits plus there are multis and the same for the bass section he has a few folders of synth and fx hits/multis but really your after his drum grooves and percussion. his clinical production shines through and there is a depth of parts to start and finish full tracks. I recommend this for new and old producers to build there own kits or reinforce there drums.


    I was really impressed with how much there own signature sound they put into this pack. as opposed to some other packs this goes very deep into sound design and very well engineered elements of drum and bass. The sounds and fx section is a thorough pack with everything you need to start and finish a very cutting edge dnb track. This gave a me a greater appreciation of there music and how talented they are is a electronic act.


    Nu tone is Such a talented producer and with this pack he is giving you a full palette to work with. For me its his piano, rhodes, strings and synths which have always caught my attention. This pack gives you a taste of that plus his uplifting bass loops, stabs and drum hits and loops. I would recommend this for anybody that wants to add a little soul and funk to there tracks.


    So much to play with in this pack, the drums are seriously hard, you have a folder of amen edits and cymbal loops which are worth every penny, the hat hits and rides will give your tracks added energy. The bass stabs and riffs are of the highest quality and have a great selection to pick through. Also check for the percussion folder for some cheeky edits.


    These guys are one of the most prolific acts in drum and bass and this pack the volume of tracks they roll out is ridiculous. And its this pack which gives you a perspective on what makes there tunes so good - Energy. You have all the basics that most packs have but its the Drum construction kits that are the key to there tracks. You can just drop these kits into your arrangement and you have a instant groove playing out which well eqed and ready for club action. Try mixing and matching the drum packs to create your own grooves and check the bass pack for some classic bass stabs. This is a must have for any dnb producer new or old. I didnt know what i was missing until i downloaded this.


    More from Pete Whitfelds industry standard series of strings. This one has added a chamber to our library, giving us a timberland dynamic to our dnb productions. check for our track d.f.t.f for a interesting approach to using this style of string. Even at a low tempo this pack creates some interesting ideas that can be worked around 170bpm. Again this is serious quality and i need the rest of the series.

    I have always enjoyed Loxys drum programing and this pack alongside Resound has given me a great insight into the technical side of there production. The construction kits and drum lps are the highlight of the kit. The guys have a great knowledge of classic breaks and there own unique take on programing drums. check there album on exit for a taste of there diversity in this field. The only negative of the pack was there wasnt enough bass parts and atmospherics which is two of the key elements i like about their tracks. But overall its the drums your getting with this and if your starting out this is a great entry level pack.


    Real Strings

    Rating: 7/10

    Pete Whitfield a legend in his own right, his real strings packs are highly sought after and its worth checking out his blog to see how many artists are credited for using his work. The main focus for us is the full string loops section of wavs which has a large selection of progressions, and the strip downs are also worth checking. what i enjoy about this and other packs by real strings is the ability to mix up the strings and build seamless arrangements of your own. What your buying here is a pack which cant be replaced or matched by other string packs, its the real deal.


    Twisted Dub

    Rating: 10/10

    This a staple in the studio right now, the drum hits are refreshing and for drum and bass or dubstep this is essential. there is also a good selection of clav, key , organ and piano stabs, atmospheres, textures and fx. i didnt find the bass loops suited what i was looking for but the deep roots flava, key loops drums etc this is the one. i would also recommend the future clash pack.


    Future Clash

    Rating: 9/10

    Im on a dub flex at the moment so this was the 2nd pack I have tested the other is twisted dub which I recommend. This pack has 6 different tempo sections, I choose to go with the lower tempos around 82 and 90 and take individual hits from the loops and melodies. Also check for the vocal parts which can add the hook to any jungle stepper. The one shots folder is the highlight of the pack and the selection of drum shots and bass shots make sure thats throughly exploited.


    I enjoyed this pack for its sounds and fx section, also the drum fills and and drum hits are worth checking for. there are some great ambience phrases and riffs from various acoustic instruments, For drum and bass i found that i used some of these sounds more for back ground textures as opposed to lead sounds or riffs. With some good effects this pack is worth its weight, i need to check the previous volumes. This pack is suited for producers who want to build up there own drum kits and bring some depth to there recordings.


    Jazz Sessions

    Rating: 9/10

    It took me a while to get into the vibe of using this pack as there is just so much to chew threw it was daunting. but once we where acquainted with the pack things feel into place. There is a great section of brass and chord fx, flute solos, sax solos, trombone and trumpets, Everything you need to bring that blue note vibe to your tracks. The percussion section is also a valuable resource. just note that there is a huge volume of material to go through in this pack.


    Wow these guys are killing Drum and bass right now with some of the best engineered music about. We where drawn to the pack due to the drum refills and bass parts. The guys are perfectionist's and if you after that expert sound you cant get a better drum and bass sample pack. Check for the percussive parts which give added funk to your beats. We have already started to use parts of this pack in our creations and we are sure this pack will make its way into many other established artists sample libraries.


    Krust is a huge inspiration for our music, and this sample pack reinforces that. We have found that this pack gives a great insight into how krust gets that trade mark organic sound, which had a sense of mystery to us. The drums are dirty and have that krust v synth texture and energy to them. We where more drawn to the arp sounds and mini moog sound design samples and layers that are on the pack. fantastic if you dont own this hardware already. This pack is a staple resource for any electronic producer. Salute


    This pack has been a welcomed supplement for us in the studio. We have already sampled some of the drum hits and break components but its his use of reverbs and fxs on the bass patch's that are second to none. Its refreshing to have access to such a solid sample pack. Watch out for some forthcoming Need for mirrors tunes c/o eclectic drum and bass.


    Fracture is a true drum and bass wizard, This pack contains some great drum construction kits, a fantastic selection of kicks, snares, hats, rides shakers in full break form or its composite parts and some very progressive organic bass stabs and parts that are all keyed and with there bpm. This is great for a novice producer or established artist and has been for us a great insight into the astrophonica sound.
