Week 28 is here and that means we’ve got brand new content lined up for you. This week we focussed on several releases from the HARDSTONE PSYCHO for our Drum Kits, made sure to deliver new high quality Synth Kits for your to create mesmerizing atmospheres and captivating melodies and combined our efforts for a very valuable article about ‘type beats’ and how you can quickly and efficiently create these using Producer Assisant to turbocharge your output and hopefully make more sales. Let’s dive right in.
Drum Kits
We have four brand new Drum Kits available in the app as of today. Let's walk through each single kit:
Houdini - Slim shady made a big return a little over a month ago and Houdini has been all but unnoticed in the global music scene. Sampling Steve Miller Band’s ‘Abracadabra’ gave us listeners an old glimpse of what once was the great and might Slim Shady. The track incorporates Eminem’s old signature groove and rap flow and is a heavy hitter in combination with the modern drum production samples.
ATTITUDE - Despite receiving awful ratings from reviewers across the globe, we felt the drums and 808 used in this track were rather interesting. The crisp clap, bouncy hihats and full 808 feel rather niche compared to the rest of our catalog, so if you’re looking for something different, this is the kit for you this week.
TORE UP - Instantly one of our favourites on the HARDSTONE PSYCHO album. The intro sets a captivating mood with a wall of guitar sounds and a very memorable guitar hook, right before dropping in hard with modern trap drums for a perfect combination of grunge/rock and modern day hip hop. These drums contain lots of energy, so if you’re looking for drums that will survive in a busy mix, this is the kit for you.
BROTHER STONE - The piano in the instrumental feels like came straight out of a soundtrack from The Legend of Zelda - Breath of the Wild, which makes it one of the more interesting instrumentals on this album. The combination of the 808 and the open hihat, plus the wide snare are some interesting new additions to your current drum pack.
Synth Kits
Next up, four brand new synth kits for you to use, dissect or flip in your next beat:
Delay - Mysterious, Trap
Kyoto - Confident, Drill
Collateral - Epic, Trap
Escape - Moody, Trap
As always, all synth kits are available in the app with downloadable Presets, MIDI and Mixed Stems.
