Production Department Pick of the Month

It’s time for the production department pick of the month.  Every month I scour our catalog to highlight a few products that I think truly exemplify quality libraries that our customers will want to hear about.  This month I want to bring your attention to two hip hop libraries that focus on the trending Dirty South style.

First off let’s look at Kings of the South: Dirty Crunk Kits. This particular product has been at the top of the Big Fish Audio top sellers for a number of months now.  This product nails the  sound to a “T” with loads of 808’s, saw synth leads, massive horns, vocal BGV’s,  and everything else that is Dirty South.  The hooks are catchy and the sounds are well crafted, making it a breeze to construct your own Dirty South hit.

Our second product we will look at is Off the Hook Dirty South 2. If you are familiar with the “Off the Hook” series then you would already know this product is going to contain top quality loop content with excellent production quality.  Volume 1 was a complete smash hit and volume 2 has raised the bar to a whole new level.  There are 41 construction kits and from top to bottom you’ll find a ton of high quality Dirty South loops and sounds that will keep you rockin for a long time.
