DAN BERKSON AND JAMES WHAT: DEEP


ELECTRONIC HOUSE Loopmasters WAV / Acid / Apple / Ableton / ReFill £34.95


VERDICT 9/10


A key sound of the moment is the deep, sensual yet tough House music on labels like Hot Natured, Crosstown Rebels, Visionquest and others, and if you’re looking for a solid pack of beats, basslines, synth lines, pads and FX in this style, then this 1.2 GB offering from the hot transatlantic production duo could be exactly what you’re looking for.


The drum loops sound like they’ve been cut from any big record this Summer,


finding that sweet spot between the classic drum machine style and a more modern techy feel. These days, of course, House music is all about the bassline and here again the included loops are bang up-to-date, ranging from ultra-deep subs for dubbier tracks to those distinctively bouncing, Chicago-style analogue basslines which can work as the hook of your track.


The synth loops are no slouch either, covering upfront Moogy lines, chordy stabs and atmospheric pad textures, while the musical loops are fully-fleshed Rhodes keyboard lines, bringing plenty of humanity and funk to proceedings. Finally, a huge range of one shots are provided, bringing you all the analogue drum sounds, synth hits, bass hits, FX and even vocal stabs you’ll need to round off your production.
