Add some bit-crushed grit to your productions
The MusicRadar Team, Fri 20 Nov 2009, 12:00 pm GMT
After a week away, SampleRadar is back, and its desire to furnish you with free, high-quality, royalty-free sounds remains as strong as ever.
On this occasion, we're getting gritty, delivering you a collection of lo-fi samples. There's a decidedly 8-bit theme to proceedings, and many of the sounds have been degraded to perfection with a range of audio processors.
The samples are split into four folders: Lo-fi drum loops, Sound FX, Construction kits and Bonus multisamples.
All the samples are supplied as WAV files so can be imported directly into your DAW or sampler of choice. Because they're royalty-free, you're welcome to use them in your music in any way you like - all we ask is that you don't re-distribute them.
The lo-fi samples are supplied in a zip file, so you'll need to extract them before you can see them. Enjoy!
