Soundware round-up

Zenhiser

Twister – Drum & Bass £33

Based on 25 32-bar construction kits at 168-174bpm, this 6.8GB library of DnB loops, one-shots and MIDI files has been made with consummate skill and love for the genre. Heavily tech-influenced throughout, the mood is dark and edgy, from punchy beats and snarling basslines to imposing synths and spacey atmospherics. On top of that, there are also five full-length ‘songstarter’ kits, providing even more highly usable material. The only downer is the vast tracts of empty space in those samples that don’t sound for the full 32 bars. zenhiser.com
