All the sounds have a polish to them and I was able to pull up some kicks and snares and I started stacking the sounds together. The sounds in the kit give off a dark vibe. There is nothing miserable about this kit. Not sure why Akai used the name Dystopia which is defined as a place that is bad and filled with misery. You will find 500 custom-built sounds that you would expect in a sample kit like kicks, snares, etc. Each kit is dedicated to a particular genre but can be used in any genre.Įlements of Dystopia is an interesting kit.
There are also programs and sequences you can load up to get you started. The MPC Expansion Packs are a collection of kicks, snares, hi-hats, loops, chords, bass and an assortment of one shot samples and FX all in wav file format. The kits are designed to work with the MPC Renaissance, MPC Studio and MPC Element.
I had the chance to review Elements of Dystopia, Elements of House, Elements of UK Dance and Elements of Garage MPC Expansion Pack.
