Ad feature with BandLab Sounds

As a producer, you can never have too many fresh sounds in your sample collection. With that in mind, rising electronic music star Ninajirachi has teamed up with BandLab Sounds and MusicTech to create a sample pack featuring 120 free samples.

The pack, called Girl EDM Particles, includes 10 drum loops, 10 synth loops, and 100 one-shot sounds – all in the future-dance style the Aussie producer has become known for. With loops in a variety of tempos and a ton of creative one-shots to experiment with, this pack might just be what you need to get those creative juices flowing.

Ninajirachi’s love affair with sampling has been going on for years. Eight years ago at 17 years old, she took to Reddit to introduce her Ninajirachi project.

“I really love recording sounds from around my house and seeing what I can do with them,” she wrote at the time. “It’s fun to show someone a demo and then tell them that the snare came from a toaster.”

In a recent interview with MusicTech, she told us how she’s always on the lookout for interesting sounds from everyday life to use in her music. “I’m voice memo-ing all the time,” she said. “I like to be surprised by stuff that I hear just going about my day. It’s so much fun.”

The Ninajirachi sample pack is available on the BandLab Sounds platform or via the free BandLab Assistant App, where you can drag-and-drop samples straight into your DAW. With BandLab Sounds, you can audition individual samples before downloading them, edit their tempo and key, adjust parameters for attack, release and tone, reverse them and more. Additionally, the samples are organised by key, tempo, character, length and instrument, so you don’t need to spend ages finding the perfect sounds for your project.

Ninajirachi also told MusicTech she sometimes likes to resample her own material in order to give it new life.

“Sampling is so fun, because samples are so frequency rich,” she says. “You kind of put a whole song in one little bit of audio. And by doing that from my own discography, I also avoid any copyright problems.”
