Ray Keith DJ, Producer, Remixer, Record Label Head Honcho, Radio & TV Presenter and one of the orginal Drum & Bass pioneers, has been on the circuit for at over 15 years. When he teamed up with Loopmasters for his first ever sample pack it was always going to produce some of the darkest samples and breaks on the planet – and this pack won’t disappoint!
After finding his niche within the Drum and Bass scene in the early 90s he managed to notch up two of the scenes most memorable releases of all time with ‘The Renegade Terrorist’ and ‘The Chopper’. Ray is one versatile individual and certainly one of the ‘Godfathers of DnB’ and continues to push the boundaries of his productions and DJ sets to an ever increasing audience of appreciative fans!
Original Drum & Bass vol 1 features a huge collection of original inspiration from the Dread Recordings studio, featuring Tearing Breaks, Deep and Menacing subs, Rave Style FX and Haunting pads and melodies to inspire the darkest of breakbeats production elite. Whether you are making Tech Step, Liquid, Hardcore, Breakbeat or Dubstep – this collection reflects the history and roots of the scene which Ray helped create and shape, and brings it full tilt into the future with some fantastic inspirational beats and bass lines destined for future dance floor killers.
Dom Kane is a star across many musical venues. From releasing his smash hit sample pack at Loopmasters last fall ( HYPERLINK ) to remixing for Global Underground to patch designing for Deadmau5 and Steve Duda (XFER) and dozens of other undertakings in between.

This sample library features a healthy set of bass loops, drum loops (divided into folders "With Kick" and "Without Kick") and synth loops. The whole loops department is complemented with a nasty set of sampler patches for the most popular soft samplers on the market - EXS24, HALion, Kontakt, NNXT & SFZ. The main sample pack also features a whopping 320+ REX2 loops ready to drop into your favorite sequencer.

surprisingly palatable plate of tempting sonic ingredients which discerning
electro, tech funk, breaks, and even minimal house and techno producers will
find most inspirational!
