Essential Lo-Fi House £30

As the name suggests, saturation and distortion play a major role in Samplestate’s knockout new house library. Vintage drum machines and synths, old mixers, tape decks and analogue outboard have been expertly handled to craft a smorgasbord of rhythmic and musical treats, taking in full-fat stemmed beats, snarling basslines, sweeping pads, pulsating Rhodes licks, smashed-up disco loops and some of the most original vocals we’ve ever heard. One for the producer seeking real analogue dirt and soul, Essential Lo-Fi House is also exceptional value. www.loopmasters.com
