Rankin Audio has launched Akira The Don – LoFi Hip Hop, a sample pack featuring the sounds of DJ, producer and certified wavelord Akira The Don.
Created in collaboration with mysterious production ensemble the Aurists, Akira presents a pack that spans the dizzying breadth of the biggest emerging genre coming out of the new digital underground. From its jazzy, Nujabes inspired origins, through its deepy aesthetic vaporwave inflections, to its anime soundtrack funk, from nostalgia-drenched sad boy trap stylings down at 60bpm up to joyful disco-plundering summer bops at 98bpm, this pack has everything you need to soundtrack the perfect lofi and chill session, and keep those 24/7 radio stations looping all year long.
For producers looking for that authentic, ripped straight-from-the-crates warm-vinyl sound, this pack features 206 gorgeous loops from drums to live instruments including piano, bass, ukekele, sax, strings, organ and more, split into individual loops, along with construction kits for seven tracks each exemplifying the diversity of the genre.
In addition you’ll find all the perfectly crunchy, crisp, and cracking drum hits you’ll need, along with a wealth of effects, vinyl crackle, tape hiss, sweeps, risers, chimes, downshifters, anime vocals and more. Everything you need for that authentic lofi sound.
