FOR FUTURE PIONEERS

FOR FUTURE PIONEERS

TRUE SCHOOL fuses the traditions of old and new school, sharing the spirit of creative beatmakers who use their deep knowledge of hip hop production to break the rules. The kits, synths, and patterns in TRUE SCHOOL combine inspired sampling, hi-tech sound design, and creative drum programming to lay new foundations for the future of beatmaking. Forget dusty clichés and aim high with a new future aesthetic.

THE SOUNDS INSIDE

TRUE SCHOOL features acoustic and electronic drums enhanced for a sharp, warm, and gritty sound, plus vibrant, hard-hitting strings, brass, and pianos. Basses and leads from Studio Electronics SE-1 and ATC-1 synths were recorded through a Steven Slate Fox preamp. And hard-to-find vintage and modern synthesizers – including the Arp Quadra, Rhodes Chroma, and Moog Minimoog Model D – were recorded through a Trident analog console and processed for an upfront sound to fit right into the mix.
