Their work has gained a rapidly growing queer cult following as well as critical praise from Pitchfork, Billboard, Paper Magazine, The Fader, and more.

Electra has collaborated and toured with pop visionary Charli XCX, Russian group Pussy Riot, and has played major pride festivals across the US. Their most recent work is unapologetic, over-the-top experimental pop with a heavy-metal, baroque twist.
These sounds, including vocals, are seriously fun and filled with surprises.
Haywyre’s “Building Blocks” Sample Pack — Martin Sebastian Vogt (known by his stage name, Haywyre) is an electronic music producer, pianist, and performer.
Inspired by the familiar sounds of Herbie Hancock, Flying Lotus, and KOAN Sound, Haywyre simultaneously draws influence from lesser-known prodigies such as 19th-century Russian composer and pianist, Sergei Rachmaninoff.
His eclectic vision and fluid dexterity as a pianist parallel effortlessly with his wicked take on contemporary dance music. After earning the admiration and respect of some of the biggest acts in the industry, Haywyre has since been inked as nationwide tour support for likes of Gramatik, Mat Zo, Zedd, and GRiZ.
Now, he’s sharing his favorite foundational elements for your next production.

She has also collaborated with various electronic producers and designed music for several video games.
DEVAULT Sample Pack — Taking inspiration from the early new wave talent of Depeche Mode and the notorious Daft Punk, Devault bridges the gap between a nostalgic and original sound. As a result, he’s developed a unique relationship between melodic electronica and dark energy.
In this pack, you’ll find his drum, FX, vocals, loops, and one-shots, all drawing inspiration from his favorite artists, cities, and genres.
Sage DeVault, better known by his stylized surname DEVAULT, reached an early breakthrough in 2017 from his official remix for DJ Snake, which was later named by Billboard as one of the top 10 remixes of the year. With official redos for artists such as Rihanna, 6LACK, Alessia Cara, Daya, and Sabrina Claudio under his belt, Devault approached 2018 as a time to debut his original work with Geffen Records. Featuring the likes of Njomza, Bipolar Sunshine, and Matt Maeson, Devault’s debut EP ‘Stay’ captured immediate attention, particularly singles ‘Nothing But You’ & ‘Between the Words.’ Alongside his new material, Devault went on to perform at major festivals such as HARD Summer, Coachella – Heineken House, Electric Zoo, and Holy Ship, to name a few.
In 2019, Devault released a dark, haunting audiovisual EP titled ‘JADE’ which gathered large press attention. “He knows how to zero in on popular electronic emotion while letting more nuanced synth sounds hang a little” noted Flaunt Magazine around his recent ‘JADE’ release.
The new sample packs and all individual sounds are now available to Splice Sounds subscribers.
