Disco fever

by The house band · 6 items · every one follows your project's key

The 1970s: four on the floor, an open hat that hisses on every offbeat, octave bass and strings that swoop.

Free. It lands in your library, ready to drop into any project.

What is inside

Press play on any of them. They loop until you stop them.

Pattern

Kick on every beat, open hat on every offbeat: boots and cats. Every dance record since owes something to this.

Pattern

Chords that step downwards, with strings running up into each change. The run-up is the glamour.

Recipe

Low note on the beat, the same note an octave up on the offbeat. Your leg starts bouncing by itself.

Recipe

Short, scratchy notes that dodge the beat. Most of what it plays is the gaps.

Recipe

A three against four pattern on the cowbell. It turns a drum machine into a party.

Recipe

The open hi-hat on every offbeat. Drummers call the sound pea soup, and you will hear why.

Now change it.

Drop any of these into a project and every step, note and sound is yours to move. That is how you find out why it works.
