When in search of good drum and bass, Joe Ford is the man to search for! big up!
Joe Ford has made a name for himself in the scene for releasing very technical Neuro DNB with unbelievable sonics .This pack and the sounds included are in keeping with his signature sound. A perfect pack when you are looking for a sound that really stands out. The main attractions are definitely Bass and Drum Loops/Oneshots which are razor sharp and can enrich/ liven up any dull loop. Tops and Perc loops in this pack are amazingly useful and will probably require zero mixing work to get them to sit nicely. Risers, Ambiences and Pads are the perfect ear candy for any introduction /build up. One would be hard pressed to find fault with this pack! We were also pleasantly surprised with the musical loops which were a nice marriage of edgy Cinematic and more organic plucky sounds. Big up Joe Ford and EST!
During those years I collected many sample packs. Some of them are good, some are average and there are few of them which I use really often. Joe Ford's sample packs are those which I need to have and love to use all the time. Those samples and loops has so unique and hi quality sound, that I often cut them and play them through several effects to try make some damage but they still sounding crisp as iceberg! And that's something very useful. Hits are ready to layer, loops ready to put into sequencer. This sample pack is the biggest time saver on the market from my point of view.
Top of the range samples, as usual by EST studios, by one of the top sound designers in the game. Really well produced sounds overall, highlights being the bass loops/one shots and synth loops that will be reached for a lot!
Joe Ford always been a wonder kid who came up with new ways and sounds, so at the time i saw he did a sample pack for EST, i checked that immediately. The pack is full of ready-to-go sounds, superb clean and inspirative music loops but also one-shot samples. This guy rocks and this pack is just great.
Sound quality: The sounds in this sample pack were of high quality. They were clear, detailed and well recorded. Each sound sounded professional and had plenty of room to process and tweak to your liking. Overall, the DNB sample pack has been a useful and stimulating resource for making DNB music. It offered quality sounds.
