With subtly unsettling moods throughout, this Elastik library is the perfect inspiration for creating atmospheric musical cues.

In total, the library contains 3.7 GB of sample data and over 800 individual loops and samples. The samples are organized into 10 extended constructions kits.

Each kit includes between two to four well-stocked musical parts plus intro, outro and singleshot drum sounds, giving the user complete flexibility to construct extended musical arrangements with plenty of variation.

Also available is Electric Guitar Moods, featuring mellow fingerpicked phrases.

If you need to create music that captures a mellow, sophisticated and super-smooth vibe, then Electric Guitar Moods is the ideal choice to inspire your next composition. With top-class performances, matched by top-class recordings, Electric Guitar Moods delivers a huge collection of delicate and intricate electric guitar loops.

In total, the library contains 2.9 GB of sample data and over 1400 individual loops and phrases. This is built from over 240 individual guitar performances with original keys in A minor or E minor, which can be transposed to any desired key or scale via ReTune. The loops are divided into tempo-based folders featuring performances at 90, 100, 110 or 120 BMP.

Each of the 240 performances features two different guitar recordings, one that is predominantly chord-based and a second one that is more focused on a single note phrase. Each sub-folder contains multiple phrase variations, enabling you to build a complete guitar performance.

The Breaking Beats Multitrack Drum Loop Series soundbank provides an inspiring collection of funky, syncopated, grooves.

The library is filled with infectious rhythms while the brilliant performances are full of dynamic twists and turns to keep your audience’s attention.

The library contains 4GB of sample data and contains more than 2800 individual loops in 12 main folders. Each folder features multiple performance parts and variations making it easy to build a complete drum performance.

The loops are provided into two separate Elastik soundbanks, one containing loops of full drum mixes and one containing all the multitrack loops from the same performances.

Volume 2 in the series, Downtempo Beats, provides a cool, laid-back, and downright groovy, set of acoustic drum performances.

The drum sounds are carefully crafted, with big, resonant kicks, plenty of snappy rim-shots, and some great brushed snare work. The performances are full of organic feel, making them an ideal rhythmic platform for your next downbeat, indie pop, trip hop, hip hop or dubstep project.

The library is built from approximately 7.3GB of sample data and contains more than 3500 individual loops divided into a number of performance-based folders. Each construction kit features multiple parts and plenty of performance variations. You can, therefore, build a complete drum performance with ease.

The majority of the performances were recorded at tempos ranging between 70 and 90bpm but some also include double-time versions for more up-tempo options. Of course, Elastik’s high-quality tempo-manipulation algorithms make it easy to match the tempo to that of your project.

The soundbanks are available for 49 EUR each.
