Ueberschall, germanys top sampling producer No 1, releases new libraries in an outrageous tempo for their own sample players Elastik and Liquid.

Minimal House is definetly a niche product. In contrast to other housematerial that could be used for Pop-, Latin- and even Black Music-productions is the minimal material almost uncrossable with other styles. On the other hand does this library concentrate only on this style and on nothing else which is a big pro for all minimal producers.

This library is damn close to the original and delivers more than enough sounds and tracks. All in all a square thing.

Sounds:
The DVD includes 24 different Construction Kits all in a range around 127 bpm so a combination of different loops is easily done. Each kit comes in different variations from backings to drums, both also played in differently. the sound is very close to the idea of Minimal-House and in his own way full of variations and nicely done. Each kit has its own instrumentation and is produced with an eye for the details.

Conclusion:
Those who are scared when they hear „House“ should now risk their eyes and ears: The tracks, that do envelope their hypnotical effect after a while, are also a good base for more complex instrumental tracks. Fans of Minial House will receive what they are looking for. This library is damn close to the original and delivers more than enough sounds and tracks. All in all a square thing.

I feel like it’s a good thing as long as the libraries are well produced and they live up to the genre printed in the title.

Veteran sample developer Ueberschall has released a new sample package entitled Minimal Techno. The sounds run on Ueberschall’s Elastik engine which allows for timestretching and pitchshifting right out of the box. They were crafted by Asem Shama and they tally up to 1200 sounds and loops across 1.6 Gigs.

The software is Mac and PC compatible featuring VST, AU and RTAS versions.
Last month at the 2008 NAMM show, Ueberschall released Minimal House which was produced by Christian Quast.
I’m sure many people scoff at sample libraries that get released alongside trends in the industry, but if the demand is there then it’s these company’s jobs to make them.
And in the case of these specific libraries, they were made by people who actually release tracks of this nature already, and not some random producer’s interpretation of how this style gets broken down. I feel like it’s a good thing as long as the libraries are well produced and they live up
to the genre printed in the title. I myself am curious to try these out as i’m sure there are some useful sounds in them.
