The Rise in Use of Loops and Samples Within EDM and Urban Music Production

In a relatively short space of time, the use of royalty-free downloadable loops & sample packs within musical compositions by electronic music producers has become increasingly popular. In today’s world of electronic digital music, it is so much easier to get your music heard and to develop a large fan base and community quickly. Digital store outlets such as iTunes or Amazon and global media platforms such as YouTube or Vimeo make it easier than it has ever been before to promote and market your music to a wide audience with every opportunity to become a rising star if you have the talent and your music is good of course.

Because of cheap computers and music software programs such as Ableton Live, Pro Logic, FL9, or Reason, enables would-be producers to create their own music in their bedrooms, eliminating the need for expensive recording studios and large equipment. Gone are the days of spending your hard-earned cash booking a £150 per hour recording studio only to be watching the clock eve 5 minutes because you’re worried about finishing your track in time without spending even more money for extra time.

Many modern artists such as electronic and hip-hop musicians and remixers need to use digital media sources and computer equipment to help them create their magic. Thankfully, the advent of the Internet means that established and up-and-coming musicians, producers, and filmmakers can easily download a wide array of royalty-free WAV samples, MIDI Loops, and drum loops that can inspire them to create new and exciting electronic music productions.
