Product Details

Mutekki Media introduces a new product series to the sample family. “Source” has been produced by Jeremy Goldstein, who is working as a professional electronic musician, composer & sound designer for over a decade, producing a wide spectrum of music for both major companies and independent record labels as well as extensive TV and multimedia projects. This versatile library showcases his diversity, incorporating a variety of genres and tempos, taken from countless sources and production techniques. While the main focus is on Electro, IDM, Ambient and more experimental facets of dance music, users will also find a substantial amount of content geared towards Techno, Drum & Bass and Hip-Hop. These sounds were created with cross-pollination and interchangeability as a primary focus, in an attempt to transcend the conventions and restraints of traditional genre-based collections. In detail, “Source” offers a collection of over 1500 high quality samples, loops and one-shots as well as nearly 200 multi-format instruments. Notable highlights include pre-mapped bass, synth, pad and atmosphere as well as the inclusion of 30 multi-kits, which incorporate atmosphere, bass, drums, FX and lead tones into one multi-sample instrument. These multi-kits allow users to open one instance of their preferred sampler and simply get to work, leaving only the limits of imagination to hold them back… Find your source.

COMPUTER MUSIC - SEP 2010

Here, Mutekki deviate from their stock-in-trade of genre-specific dance libraries. This one isn't as hard-hitting, and instead offers about 1.7GB of quirky 'sound designed' material for bolstering productions, with some subtle stylistic nods to genres like DnB, dubstep, electro, etc. You get a bunch of 'atmospheres', many with a spectrally manipulated tone; 200 FX noises; about 600 drum hits; around 200 dirty bassI synth noises (including funky glottallvowel sounds); and a handful of multisamples. There are 287 bass, beat, percussion and synth loops, and most are raw enough to be prime slicing fodder. For those who like to keep their bag mixed, this well-produced pack is worth a pop. 7/10.
