Big Fish Audio have had a relatively quiet 2009 so far compared to previous years having released five titles in the past six months – Mirrorball, Chill 2, Rotation Hip Hop, Earth Tone: World Percussion and the hugely popular Epic Drums. However, the sample giants have clearly been busy working on new libraries as we see the release of three new titles this week…
Bollyhood Beats is a perfect fusion of Hip Hop beats with traditional Indian percussion including tabla, dholak, duff, manjira, ghungroo, clay pot and various types of shakers. This massive multi disc library was performed by Sanket Athale, one of India´s top percussion players and produced and conceived by Dinshah Sanjana.

Twisty downtempo, Fatboy-style breakbeat, west coast breaks, even drum n bass…if your beat is broken, The Electron Smasher crushes it to pieces. With nearly 600 loops and over 100 drum loop construction kits, you´ve got tons of variations and you also get a great assortment of drone-y, ambient, textural loops to give your tracks that thick underpinning they need.

Finally, Hip Hop Exotica 2, the second installment of cross-cultural Hip Hop and World Beat, soars over all continents blending the sum of most exotic Asian, Middle Eastern, Indonesian, Latin American and African instruments with east and west coast grooves. Sitar, santur, baglamas, bouzouki, flutes, koto, tzoura, marimbas, jubus, shamisen, oud and malawi flow over beds of scorching gangsta beats.
