Sounds of Berlin

'Sounds of Berlin' is all about the musical metropolis Berlin which has influenced the Electro and Minimal Scene like no other city in the world. Ueberschall captures this exact spirit with this release, providing a localised source of inspiration and a professional, stand-out production device for sound masters worldwide.

The first part of this series features the two top artists Ruede Hagelstein and Asem Shama. Both DJs are well known for their releases on labels such as'Upon You', 'Lebensfreude' and 'Sportclub' and delivered their unique spirit to clubs and festivals like Watergate (Ger), Womb (JP), Fabric (UK), Berghain (Ger), Cocoon (Ger) and Sonar (Esp).

'Sounds of Berlin' covers the different sub-genres of minimal sound, from 120 BPM Afterhour-House to 130 BPM Dancefloor-Techno, and is oriented around labels and themes such as 'Kompakt', 'Mobilee', 'Vakant', 'Boxer' and 'Cocoon'.

The 1 GB content is built for professional club sound needs. 1,258 Loops & Samples provide enough material to be invited to countless sessions and hours of inspiration and creativity.

Forward Features:

Each of the 75 Construction Kits is broken down into its single lines, each kit offers bass loops, synth loops and drum and percussion loops, which can be integrated easily into every liveset, thanks to Elastik. For your own groove creation you can use the single drumsounds which provide the low-end treatment and high frequency sizzle for the right punch in every club.

All material is preprogrammed and ready to roll out thanks to the bundled Elastik interface.
