A sense of darkness has fallen across this instalment of SampleRadar, which is inspired by the sound of horror film soundtracks (the '80s, John Carpenter type in particular).
In this pack, you can expect suspenseful electro pulse loops, tense synth basslines, dissonant pianos, low staccato strings and some chilling chimes.
What you need to know
The horrorscape samples are divided into four folders that are labelled according to their tempo.
All the samples are supplied as WAV files so can be imported directly into your DAW or sampler of choice. Because they're royalty-free, you're welcome to use the samples in your music in any way you like - all we ask is that you don't re-distribute them.
The horrorscape samples are supplied in a zip file, so you'll need to extract them before you can see them. Enjoy!
