SampleRadar: 225 free pure evil samples
A collection of bleak and fearful sounds
SampleRadar generally likes to stay on the right side of the tracks, doing good turns and maintaining an amiable disposition.
Every once in a while, though, we have darker thoughts, and these are reflected in this week's collection of deliciously dark sounds.
What you need to know
The city nights samples are divided into five tempo-labelled folders, each of which contains guitar and string sounds.
All the samples are supplied as 24-bit 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 pure evil samples are supplied in a zip file, so you'll need to extract them before you can see them. Enjoy!
Example sounds
Stratoblaster 85bpm
AgedViolins 95bpm
