A new soundblock is available for Saplebase, called Asian Beat Companion. It’s intended for creating Asian inspired Hip Hop, electronic and experimental music, as well as film scores. Asian Beat Companion features over 130 loops from three Asian instruments, all performed and recorded by professional musicians in Malaysia.
From the Samplebase press release:
The three instruments represented include the Guzheng, which is a relative of the Koto and belongs to the zither family, the Sheng, a mouth-blown free reed instrument with vertical pipes, and the Yagnquin, which is a dulcimer played with bamboo mallets. The sound of this collection of loops varies from joyous to melancholy to haunting.
