Sample Magic – Piano House From $7.99/mth

>Hundreds of tinkled ivory loops, ready and willing to turn your half-realised house beats into hands-in-the-air club anthems. From stabs and chords, to riffs and melodies, each sample has been inspired by years of dance music history. And the nostalgic playing style, especially when let loose on the richly recorded grand piano, instantly fills the room with a joyous noise.

You also get five great presets, and other track-starting elements to fill out your productions. Case in point – the jackin’ drum loops, stacked with percussion or stripped back to kicks. And the excellent bank of vocal hooks, which come pre-chopped. Great fun, all round.
