TECHNOTRON SD422

Minimal techno, industrial techno, schranz, electro, free tekno, Detroit techno — these styles seem to consist of simple rhythmical beats and variations, but this is just not true. Everyone who has tried to produce minimal techno at the top level has surely met the fundamental problem: missing suitable samples with the characteristics of a dirty, minimalistic sound. Many samples from the available basic drum collections are not really useful, and there is a lack of minimal techno samples that could simply be bought in the standard shops.

From our experience, in 90% of the techno sample packs produced by competitors only the classic samples are usually useful — kicks, claps, hi-hats — but they are missing the most important ones: synthetic, dirty, minimal percussion, industrial sounds, robotic drums, scary hits, dusty clicks and scratches that sound like a weak scratched radio signal from a far-away NASA space station attacked by evil aliens. Drums where you never know where they are coming from: the creepy woods of the Amazon jungle, or a far unknown mutant civilization — dark dirty noises and breathtaking massive percussive beats. Simply put, the basic structure of every great techno track was always a big problem to achieve, and even more difficult to produce. But…

TECHNOTRON SD422 is HERE — a collection of samples that will help you produce minimal techno at the TOP level. Now it is as easy to produce pro sounding minimal techno tracks as building a house from LEGO during your spooky childhood.

Of course this sample pack is not just for minimal techno — it is also useful in the darkest music styles: dark psytrance, psycore, dark ambient, dubstep, dark drum & bass / neurofunk / darkstep / techstep, experimental, industrial, dark wave, tribal, minimal house, EBM and dark core.

All demo songs were created only with TECHNOTRON SD422 and some additional effects such as Pultronic EQ-110P and Twisthead VS-206.
