[FREE] Firestarter 6 Sample Pack

02 March 2021

There’s always something special about the warm, lush sound of an electric piano. When I write, I usually start on some type of keys. I play around with some chords and see where it takes me. This session found me back in the ARTURIA realm and tinkering with their Stage 73 electric piano Rhodes emulation. These were longer compositions and I left them at full length because each section of the piece was inspired by the section before it. I set these to 80bpm.

The sixth in the series, my Firestarter 6 Sample Pack is available now and FREE to download here.

Hope these pieces spark something creative in you!

You can also check out the rest of my FIrestarter Sample Pack series, all of which are FREE.

Enjoy and be safe.

Respect.

[FREE] Firestarter 5 Sample Pack

16 February 2021

Hey guys, hope all is well with you and yours. I was messing around with ARTURIA’s Cinema Layers Grand Piano. Inspiration hit and in the midst of me writing, I created a ton of new pieces, 6 of which I am offering to you in my Firestarter 5 Sample Pack. I made these at 138bpm. My hope is that this sample pack spark ideas in you and keep you in a creative headspace, despite everything going on in the world around us.

[FREE] Firestarter 4 Sample Pack

03 September 2020

Hey guys! Let me start by saying THANK YOU for downloading, engaging and supporting.

I love making music. Sometimes the entire song comes to me and sometimes, just a melody or riff pops into my head. I know that when I hear certain sounds or riffs it inspires me to create and write. I hope these packs are helping to do the same for you.

So here’s another one (**in my DJ Khaled voice**). The Firestarter 4 Sample Pack. Seven original compositions in C Major at 142bpm (beats per minute), all on a grand piano (I’m a sucker for melody).

Firestarter 4 is free and is available for download now. Get it and cook!

I hope you and yours are safe. Thank you again. I truly appreciate you. Feel free to follow me on social media and share whatever you create with this pack.
