UPDATE: This Giveaway is now over, but the samples ARE still available and on sale!
Well, I decided to give away 25 copies of my new Chicago juke samples package, “StrangeFlow’s Ultimate Juke Samples.” I did a similar giveaway when I released my, “500 Trap Music Vocal Samples,” a few months back, except I only said I was going to give away ten (to the first ten comments on that “giveaway” blog post) … Well, I posted the giveaway, went out to lunch, and came back (with a belly full of delicious Seattle burritos) hoping to have a few folks to give some trap samples to.. Well..
The results proved that some of these giveaways are FAR more popular than I had anticipated.. So, this time, I’m doing 30! Yep, 25 free copies will be passed out! So if you’re into juke music, or even just curious, you should really consider entering – this page is bound to fill up with comments fairly quickly..
IF YOU DON’T get here in time to be one of the first 25 comments, that’s ok. The sample pack is still available.. HERE!!
As well, there is a free 20-sample demo package also available.. HEEEERE!
SO! Now that that’s taken care of….
Start the comments! If you want to, feel free to FOLLOW Bassadelic, as well.. Or feel free to write an amusing comment about egg salad. It’s up to you. Either way, if you’re one of the first 25 comments, you will get an email soon…
Pleaaase give me up to a day or so to get all the packages delivered. I’m doing this by myself (just as I do most of this site) so please take this into consideration! :) I’m sure you’ll understand! Thanks for the interest and support, and I hope you guys enjoy the fuck outta these samples!!
…and….GO!

Here’s a preview I put together, which contains nothing but samples from this package!
Juke/footwork is a fast and very rhythmic style of dance music that originated from the city of Chicago and takes influence primarily from ghetto house music. It should come as no surprise that the city that created house music knows a thing or to about how to put together a damn good dance tune, and juke is a great example of that.
Juke has been created for years, but it has recently received international recognition, with artists such as Addison Groove and labels such as Night Slugs and Planet Mu making their contribution to the genre. However, some of the originals (who are still cookin’ up incredible trax to this day) include DJ Rashad and DJ Spinn, just to name a couple.
Footwork and juke trax have been exploding in the last few months, and if you’re dedicated enough, you can get in on the ground floor right as this exciting genre of electronic music starts to blow up the way dubstep and trap did, so recently.
Another exciting aspect of juke music is the footwork dancing you see at parties where juke music might be played. In fact, the music is designed for the dancers, and if you haven’t seen footwork dancing, I suggest you look it up immediatlely, as it is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time! Footwork dancers move their feet in such a fast and complex, stylistic way; it’s mesmerizing, and I only wish I knew how to do it, myself (or was physically capable of moving THAT fast – it’s really insane what footwork dancers can do… It looks UNREAL…).
So, if you want to make Chicago style juke beats, you’ll be purchasing the right product! I hope you enjoy this package, as I spent a lot of time with it and tried as hard as possible to make this the most useful product it could be for making juke tunes. So, without further ado, here’s what you can expect from this sample pack, in total:
You get well over SIX HUNDRED samples with this package, all of them extremely useful and well put together, making this unique and reasonably-priced product an even better buy.
You’ll have a damn hard time finding any other footwork / juke production packs on the market, much less any as good as this one.
Even if you’re only thinking of doing remixes, this kit will undoubtedly serve you well! With complete beats in three different time signatures (which can be adjusted up or down a reasonable number of beats per minute) sequenced synthizer melodies (fifty of them!) and a copy of every drum sample from the TR-808 and TR-909 drum machines, this is one of the best electronic music sample products of 2013, hands down. We have full confidence in it, as it is one of our best products, to date.
The cover graphic above is a re-branding of the ‘StrangeFloow’s Ultimate Juke Samples’ package. I thought this one needed a new title image
(P.S. Don’t worry, despite Yuri’s attempts at taking credit for all of jukedom, I have successfully kept him OUT of this project!)
(P.P.S….. What if you’re sitting there, thinking, “StrangeFlow, this all sounds too good to be true, but wait a minute – how do I know this is what I want? Can’t you give us a free preview? Or something? Give us twenty free samples, no questions asked..”
Fair enough! Here are twenty free samples:
Here’s a demo pack, containing 20 free samples, to get you started on this juke pack. Happy mixing!
Here’s a preview/demo track made with these samples. There are tons and tons of potential sounds and tunes you can get out of these samples, and here are a few:
Well, the juke samples pack I promised is now complete. To celebrate this, I’ve organized a free juke demo pack for interested producers.
Hopefully you’ll enjoy these samples, and, in a perfect world, come back for more. The 600+ samples pack will be waiting here for only 16 bucks, and in the meantime, enjoy these 20 freebies that are taken directly from the package itself.
Well, its here: a complete Bassadelic-rinsedown of the classic 909 drum machine. This package gives you 170 Tr-909 drum samples (as well as 30 funky snares) that are ready for your mixes. Not just choppy, ear-pinching cymbal drums and snares without reverb, no! You can add what affects you need to on top of these sounds, but they have already been manipulated, lightly or moderately saturated in many cases, many have been lightly amped, reverb added, and limited – these 170 samples have been affected with the (MODERN) electronic musician in mind… It is easier to use these 909 samples in your mixes than it would be to use the actual machine.
This package contains 170 one-shot drum samples (as well as 30 extra / original funky snares, as a free gift).
OH SNIPPITY SNAP, THIS WHOLE THING IS 5 BUCKS!
This is a comprehensive package of slightly processed Roland TR-909 drum machine one-shot samples. These samples have received the Bassadelic rinsedown, which means they have been touched up and manipulated to make them better fit for beat-making and electronic music production.
I did this because although I enjoy the sound of the raw 909 drums, I find that I almost always needed to process the samples when using them digitally, in a song or a rhythm. So, I decided to process all the 909 drums individually and add slight touch-ups, including slight amplification, mild saturation, reverb, limiting, and a number of other subtle effects that help these drums get ready for a new beat, but not mastered or overly-processed to the point where they are unrecognizable as what people expect from that incredible 909 drum box sound!
I personally think the best processing was done with the cymbals; I was able to smooth them out a little and give them a very nice, lush reverb quality, but still kept them as punchy as they needed to be. Also, the handclaps were effected, noticeably more than some of the other samples. As well, claps are one of my favorite samples to work with, so I went to town manipulating them in different variations, and I added a few of these ‘extra’ claps in a marked folder in addition to the two primary clap samples found in the TR909 drum machine.
So, I hope these samples are of some benefit to you. I plan to release mor drum kits and sample packs, I’m very interested in the older “retro” drum sounds, especially. I’m a big fan of the disco-ish Roland TR-66, a precursor to the TR-909, so stay tuned for that, which should be coming up in the months ahead!
Also, I’d like to point out that I love taking requests for samples and sample packs, so if you have an idea, let me know!
