Galbanum releases "Abstraction 05: Wet and Wild Tribe" (ACID/AL/SFZ)

Galbanum has released Abstraction 05: Wet & Wild Tribe, a new sample loop library that is described as a cacophony of tech house and tribal madness performed by sentient underwater robots.

Abstraction 05 arrives just in time for the start of the spring and summer club season and is well suited to help evaluate the mood of the opening parties for global sea-side dance music destinations such as Miami, Ibiza, Saint-Tropez, Rio, and other maritime paradises. Enhanced organic percussion performances permeate the package, aided and abetted by heavy use reverb and spatial wizardry. Performances range from lyrical rhythmic phases suitable for poolside and terrace romances, to full blown 4AM peak-time sprints.

All Abstraction 05 loop content is produced at a native tempo of 125BPM and is designed to effortlessly stretch from 115BPM to 140BPM and beyond to fit all tempo ranges used in current percussion-focused dance music styles such as:

• Tech House, Tribal House, Progressive House, & House, Techno.
• Film Scoring, Game Development, and Sound FX.
• And any other cross-genre music style that borrow from these influences.

Specifications:

• 768 new and unique cutting-edge loop files. 1024 Single Hit samples organized into 32 Sampler Instrument banks and provided with included SFZ format keympapping files that can be read by most industry-standard sampler instruments. All files are 44.1K/24bit content. Over 1GB of new content.
• Loops available in Apple Loops or Acid Loops. All loops are 2 measures long and are designed to allow using partial segments of the full loop to give thousands of variations (REX2 format is not available for this title to do the heavy use of reverb in the loops, and the importance of the preservation of release times to maintain the feel of the groove).
• All loops are provided without standard embedded kick/snare/high-hat patterns to give the producer maximum flexibility in song arrangement. Loop content is purposefully designed to be mixed with other existing libraries that provide these standard kick/snare/high-hat elements. Abstraction 05 is like an accomplice to a crime a passion on the dance floor.
• All samples are processed in stereo and make use of extreme spatial processing techniques at the sample level to produce sounds that literally jump out of the speakers.
• All loops are processed extensively using 2CAudio's reverbs, Aether and Breeze, and make extensive use of manual gating techniques and other transformations of release times to enhance the feel of the groove.
