Vintage Soul
The Sample Lab · Ian James
by Ian James
Dusty soul loops. Cracked textures. Warm keys run through tape and SP hardware. 189 original compositions built for boom bap, soul, and hip hop.
Hear It First
Every loop and drum in these demos comes straight from Faded Grooves Vol. 1. What you hear is exactly what you get.
Built Different
Chop it, layer it, flip it. Every main loop and drum loop comes with full stems so you work with the individual elements, not just the bounce.
Warm Rhodes, cracked keys, faded textures. Built by a producer who ran every loop through tape and SP hardware until it sat lived-in.
Use it on albums, placements, sync deals, anything. No clearances, no splits, no surprises. Cleared for commercial use from day one.
Drop it straight into Ableton, FL Studio, Logic, MPC, or Maschine. Standard 24-bit WAV. No plugins, no setup, just sound.
Every file labeled with BPM and key. Find what fits fast and move on.
Nothing borrowed. Nothing sampled off a record. 189 original pieces written and performed by Ian James for this pack.

The Producer
Ian James doesn't need to make sample packs. He's got Grammys. He's got placements most producers spend a lifetime chasing. He could've slapped his name on a preset kit and called it a day.
Instead, he built Faded Grooves.
Every loop, every one shot, every drum break written and produced from the ground up. Mixed to the same standard he brings to major label records. This isn't content. It's catalog.
189 sounds. No filler. Just a producer at the top of his game bottling the dusty, soul-leaning side of his sound.
189 sounds. Full stems. Instant download. Everything you need to build something real.
