_liquid loops includes over 340 drum & bass drum loops. Created exclusively in hardware, and inspired by the cleaner side of 2-step, this collection offers a ready to pour, undiluted collection of Liquid Drum & Bass inspired building blocks.
This release is only available to our Subsocial Now or Forever sounds plan members.
Watch a loops demo/walkthrough and hear what's inside here:
With 16x 4-bar drum patterns made from 16 different percussive palettes, and a whole bucket of pattern variations for each, you can mix and match, or layer and chop as you see fit to create a virtually limitless number of beat variations that work for drum & bass genres.
All loops were created at 174 bpm as a happy middle ground for tempo, while the patterns themselves are both different and similar enough to combine and arrange very fluidly.
Overall, the style is clean, simple, and ready to make dirty if you so desire. There are a few patterns that hit harder, or syncopate a little sideways, but they don’t stray too far from the overall unified, minimalist feel. This collection of loops can be used together, or as individual loops, which is why we think it’s extra “liquidy.”
We used both old and new hardware samplers to create these loops with our own samples, and then captured them through an analogue chain consisting of saturation, EQ + compression. We think you’ll enjoy the results and where these loops will blend in your mixes.
If architecture is frozen music then music must be liquid architecture.
