Nostrum – Drum & Bass Sample Pack

“Ghost Syndicate has created another ace pack! Despite the pack being fairly small in size, the content is so well produced that it’s guaranteed to get the creative juices flowing! These guys make the most sonically impressive sounds in the game and they have set the bar even higher now! The quality of the Drums & Percussion Loops and One-Shots are simply phenomenal! The other sections also deliver what they promise This pack is ideal for anyone making more technical and clean sounding D&B!” – Disphonia

NOSTRUM is a gritty toolset full of tearaway sonics encompassing key elements of dark and gritty Drum’n’Bass, including styles such as Techstep, Neurofunk, and even Jump-up.

“This straight-up 172/174bpm DnB library delivers a generous helping of loops and shots at a very reasonable price. 30 lovingly crafted stemmed (kick/snare, hi-hats, percussion and tops) drum loops get things going – bright, punchy and ‘classic’ in their styling, generally speaking. The 36 stemmed bass loops are the highlight, comprising Mid and Sub layers (as well as mixed bounces) and writhing with modulation, while the 21 synth lines are mostly of the incidental rather than ‘lead’ variety. A tonne of one-shot drums, percs, basses and FX seals the deal.” – Computer Music Magazine

Offering a panacea for any terminally ill DnB sketch, it is capable of both reviving and giving new life, thanks to its masterfully crafted array of sounds: the bulky beats with razor-sharp transients and meticulous compression will leave no limb unmoving; the diverse low-end with spitting, snarling, and gurgling mids, as well as classical resses and chest-rattling subs, will keep dancefloor shuddering for quite a while.

“Powerful sounding as always! These guys always hit hard and this pack fits in just nicely with the other high end products they’ve put out. The synth section is tight and sounds great, whilst the bass is high end and heavy sounding. Id say a big thumbs up from us and definitely worth not only getting involved with this pack but keeping an eye out on everything they do in the future.” – Document One

All that is nicely complemented by distorted basses, shrill synth & FX loops with wailing risers, glitchy bits, and a scope of undefined sonic objects bound to keep you experimenting.

“An organised collection of easy to use loops and one-shots that would be an asset to any producer operating in the dark and techy side of DnB. With rolling drum loops, warm subs, punchy beats and twisted bass/synth-lines, rounded off with a decent amount of fx,, packs like this are always appreciated!” – ZeroZero

“Another great sample pack from Ghost Syndicate showing their consistency across multiple genres. Breaks are crisp with lots of energy, percussion is snappy, bass is heavy with lots of movement…everything you need to build Drum & Bass (or Drum & Bass influenced tracks). All samples are labelled well, and precisely edited so can be easily dropped into your DAW and used instantly. Would definitely recommend.” – Deathmachine

“This is such a great sample pack for the Drum n Bass heads out there. Great selection of hard basses and crisp drums. Ghost Syndicate has always been one of my favourite sample producers, and this is another solid pack. Edgy sounds to help elevate your tracks to the next level.” – Dub Elements

“This is first pack i have tried from Ghost Syndicate, and defo not the last! The amount of sounds is amazing and the quality is really great. Pack is well organized and contains almost everything you need – from FX’s to drum one shots and loops to bass and synths.. For example drums are sounding really great, tight and clean. But the same applies to other folders. I really dig the synth loop section, full of ideas. Highly recommended!” – QO
