Goldbaby Productions has announced its Urban Cookbook Vol. 1 sample library.

Want to cook up some delicious beats… well then you probably need my cookbook. The ingredients are full of saturated fat, MSG, a heap of sugar and are not suitable for a low cholesterol diet. The recipes are perfect for these dishes: Hip Hop, Dub Step, Drum & Bass, Breaks, Grime, Dance Hall, Electro… Although chefs making other dishes like: IDM, House and Techno will appreciate the varied high quality ingredients. Punchy Kicks, Solid Snares, Hi Hats, Toms, Percussion, Claps, Cymbals, Layering tools, FX, Vinyl Hits, Chord Hits, Bass tools and Rex Loops… just over 1 GB of the freshest ingredients.

With patches for Maschine & Mikro, Battery 3, Kontakt 4, Geist and Logic’s EXS-24. You will need the full version of Kontakt 4 or 5 to use the Kontakt patches. The free player will only load them in demo mode.
