Dub & dub-techno NI Massive loops from Steve Foulds

Sunday, November 8th, 2009

So, I recently posted about Steve’s incredible new Black Light EP, and his apparent new-found love for all things dub-techno.

As a result of this, he’s been working hard on some patches for Native Instrument’s behemoth “Massive”.

Each of the patches has a different dub-techno styled synth sound, with macro controlled iterations on each loop. Each patches is separate by a clave. To get them, all you need to do is buy the track he created to demonstrate their use.

Jump on to his Bandcamp and grab “Low Winter Sun” and he’ll then fire you a link to download the samples.

Larvely!
