Oscilla - Afro House

Right, let's skip the usual waffle about "sun drenched rhythms" and "global influences". You know what Afro House sounds like, and either it's your thing or it isn't. If it is, Oscilla is going to make your week! The loops in this majestic sample pack are the main event. 75 drum loops that actually swing, no stiff quantised nonsense, proper grooves with air in them The bass synths are fat without being muddy, the leads have that slightly melancholic, almost spiritual quality that makes Afro House sound like nothing else, and the music loops in there solitude could carry a new release on their own. Simple samples with extraordinary power. Because we include fx trails on certain loops, they're great for transitions or just adding movement without having to faff about with automation, fx and all that nonsense. All included one shots are clean and punchy. 26 kicks across different weights and textures, 25 claps that sit properly in a mix without needing to be processed, and hi hats that actually have character. The bass one shots cover everything from sub heavy hits to the kind of plucky synth bass stab that Afro House producers have been quietly addicted to for years. MIDI is obviously included for all the melodic part of the pack, thus swapping synths or re programming gives you a multitude of options. Now we get to the interesting bit, the Stems. There are five stem kits: Wonder, Force, Love, Elevate, Darkside. These are worth the price of admission on their own. Full tracks broken down into stems so you can pull them apart, see how they're put together, remix them, or just use them as a masterclass in song arrangement. Force alone has 20 stems, honestly there's bunch to play around with in Oscilla. Simply grab the pack, job done. You won't be disappointed.
