A personal favourite, this loop-pack from the aptly named Sound Persuader is an amazing sample collection. 

Grainy pads and textures, similar to Burial and like-minded artists, with pulsating, warm, almost impossibly deep effects. These sounds are ripe for tweaking and deconstructing into dubby, blurred, soundscapes or taming into melodies, strings, and pads. 

A must have for the deep side of any genre, trip-hop, techno, IDM, and dubstep etc. The name says it all really, this is Astral Magnitude.

Originally from South Africa, but known for his long time activity in the Japanese techno scene based in Tokyo, the nomadic producer, Shane Berry, currently resides in Belgrade. 

Glitchy and Twisty is a package of loops that defy expectation. Minimal, yet complex, these original sounds are truly from outer space, or a future Earth ruled by a dark race of organic machines. Either way, these unique loops contain endless tweakable inspiration for making modern techno and IDM type grooves.

A well known producer for film and in demand session player, Chris Guy is also one of the West Coast's top studio engineers.

Chris, along with audioBase.com, present a duo of loop-packs full to the brim with killer beats and loops targeted at Hip-Hop production. Recorded in a top quality studio setting, these sounds can be manipulated to suit any style of production.
